Send us a textHow often do we truly examine the 'bad fruit' in our lives? In an honest and revealing conversation, we venture deep into this concept, drawing inspiration from Brother Lawrence's book "The Practice of the Presence of God". We discuss the temptation to quickly discard these imperfections, instead of tracing them back to their roots. We encourage you to invite Jesus into your life to not only confront these sins but to help bear good fruit. We then transition to the transformative power of partnership with Jesus, exploring the importance of sanctification. Referencing the profound verses of Romans 12:1-2, we discuss the significance of offering ourselves as living sacrifices and letting our minds be renewed. As we address the 'bad fruit' in our lives, we explore how this process leads to a more vibrant and fulfilled existence. Join us as we journey together towards sanctification, ending in a collective prayer for guidance along this path. Tune in and let's cultivate and harvest the fruits of a life in partnership with Jesus, together.
