In Week 4 of Life on the Vine, Pastor Tim teaches on the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Many of us believe truths about God but haven’t always experienced them. Jesus promises that the Spirit is not just with us, but in us - our Counselor who comforts, strengthens, guides, and helps us understand God’s heart.

Tim walks through Jesus’ words in John 14–16, showing how the Spirit helps us, empowers us, exposes what’s false, and shapes us to look more like Jesus. The Spirit brings God’s manifest presence into our everyday lives and invites us into a life of expectation without agenda.

Explore how the Spirit wants to give you more of God’s life, more of His presence, and more of His transforming work.

Pastor Tom Sefik continues our Life on the Vine series by looking at Jesus’ call to “abide in my friendship.” In a culture wrestling with disconnection and loneliness, this passage shows that we were created for deep friendship — with God and with others.

Through John 15:9–16, Pastor Tom unpacks how Jesus invites us into the deepest, most life-giving friendship possible, one grounded in sacrificial love, open access to His heart, and the confidence of being chosen by Him. This kind of relationship doesn’t just comfort us — it transforms us and shapes the fruit we bear.

True thriving doesn’t come from striving harder but from staying connected to Jesus, the True Vine.

When we remain in Him, the Father, the Gardener, works to prune and shape our lives for lasting fruit. Through seasons of growth and hardship, God is forming something beautiful that brings Him glory.

Listen in and reflect on what it means to truly abide, trust the Gardener’s work, and live a fruitful life on the vine.

Life on the Vine | Walking with Jesus Our Hope

In his first message as Lead Pastor of Grace Church, Pastor Tim shares how John 14 became a lifeline during a difficult season in his own life. As Jesus comforts His troubled disciples, we’re reminded that hope isn’t found in circumstances, it’s found in a Person. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. He’s still writing your story. He hasn’t left you as an orphan. And He invites you to trust the Spirit who lives in you, not just a God who’s “with” you, but the One who is fully in control.

In this message from Pastor Jordy, we explore the deep longing for fulfillment and how only Jesus can meet it. Through the lens of Jacob’s encounter at the well and Jesus’ promise of living water, we’re reminded that God has always been the source of zoe—a full and meaningful life.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on empty, this message will help you recognize the “broken cisterns” we often turn to and invite you back to the true Source.

What are you wrestling with? And what lies might be shaping your life more than you realize?

This week, Pastor Joe walks us through the story of Jacob, his past, his limp, and the moment everything changed. We explore how our wounds often lead to lies… and how God meets us in the wrestle to rename, restore, and repurpose us.

Whether you’re carrying shame, struggling to be honest, or simply tired of pretending, this message is a reminder: God isn’t asking you to hide your limp, He’s asking to use it.

In this message, Pastor Josiah Stumbo invites us into a deeper understanding of what it means to pray in the Spirit. Drawing from Isaiah, the words of Jesus, and Paul’s letters, we see how prayer becomes a living connection with God, not just discipline, but relationship.

When we recognize the Holy Spirit’s presence within us, prayer moves from routine to reality. We are reminded that we are God’s children, grounded in His love, and never alone, even when words fail.

Paul shows us that moral effort and religious rules can’t make us right with God, only grace through Jesus can. But grace isn’t a license to sin. Every choice has consequences: sin brings death and bondage, while Christ brings freedom, holiness, and eternal life.

In this message, Pastor Kareem reminds us that the domain we serve will be the domain that dominates. Will we choose sin, or will we choose life in Christ?
