In this message, we continue our series My Job Depends on AG by exploring the deeply biblical—and often overlooked—principles of rootedness and hiddenness.

Using the language of agriculture, Scripture reminds us that real transformation doesn’t begin with what’s visible, but with what’s happening beneath the surface. Just as roots grow underground long before fruit appears, spiritual growth is formed in unseen places—through humility, obedience, discipline, and abiding in Christ.

We look at how Jesus Himself lived a life of hiddenness, spending 30 years in quiet formation before three years of public ministry, and what that reveals about God’s design for lasting fruit. This sermon challenges our culture’s obsession with visibility and invites us into a slower, deeper way of following Jesus—one where character is formed before influence, and intimacy with God matters more than public approval.

You’ll hear about:

Why transformation without roots doesn’t last

The biblical connection between humility, soil, and growth

The two types of “hiddenness” Scripture speaks about

How what we sow in secret shapes what we reap in public

Why abiding in Christ is the only way to sustain true fruitfulness

If you’ve ever felt overlooked, impatient for growth, or pressured to produce before you’re ready, this message is an encouragement: what God grows in secret is what sustains us in public.

Be encouraged to slow down, go deep, and remain rooted in Jesus—the source of life, strength, and lasting fruit. 🌱
