Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - John 15:1-8 (John 14:6, 26-27 & 30-31; 15:1-8; Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Corinthians 5:14; Psalms 1:1-3; Hebrews 12:1)

On the way to the garden, in some of His final moments before the cross, Jesus gives His disciples a powerful picture: “I am the vine, ye are the branches.” In the Gospel of John 15:1–8, He teaches that real spiritual life doesn’t come from effort—it comes from connection.

The Spirit of God lives in us, changes us, and produces fruit through us. But Jesus makes it clear: without Him, we are lifeless and fruitless.

Join us as we discover what it truly means to abide in Christ. Jesus is teaching us how to live a fulfilled life that truly makes a difference.

Series description:

Jesus knew exactly when—and how—His life would end. On the night before the cross, He gathered with His disciples for one final meal. But this was more than a supper. It was a moment of preparation. Knowing the suffering that awaited Him, Jesus chose to spend His final hours teaching—not crowds, not strangers, but the ones He loved. These were not casual words. They were intentional. Urgent. Eternal.​ In John 13–16, we hear the heart of Jesus. His love, His compassion, His mission, and His promises. These are His final teachings before He took on our sin and endured the cross. And though spoken long ago, these words still speak powerfully today—shaping how we live, love, serve, and follow Him. Before He went to the cross, Jesus made sure we knew what mattered most.
