My parents grew grapes on their little plot of land in Southern California. There weren't many, but enough for me to know that getting fruit at harvest depended on three things: the solid connection of branch to vine, the vigilant care of the workers, and the consistency of those things over time. Jesus, walking with the disciples toward the Garden of Gethsemane, gives life lessons to His men using the familiar example of growing grapes. With that analogy in mind, let's consider the three ways our relationship to God is described by Jesus.

For centuries, people have tried to make Jesus into something other than who He is—God in the flesh. But in the message "Why Jesus Is Supreme," Skip shares how Jesus is above all, without equal—and why that makes all the difference for you.

The theme of John's gospel is "believe." The whole reason he wrote this book is so that people who read it will believe in Jesus (see John 20:31). But why should they believe? And even more applicable, why should we believe? After all, the events of the New Testament are over 2,000 years removed from us today. Jesus' confrontation with the religious leaders in John 5 tells us why we should believe. Like a skilled lawyer, Jesus calls upon four witnesses to testify to His claims and these four give the reasons for our believing in Jesus Christ.

The prophets, the apostles, the early church, and even Jesus Himself all had run-ins with religious leaders. In the message "The Giant of Religion," Skip shares how you can stand up to religious pressure while impacting it with the gospel.

God loves every one of His children equally. In this message, Skip shares how valuable you are to the Lord and how He includes you in His plans to reach a lost world with His love.
