In John 15, Jesus says:

  • Fruit Comes from Connection – Apart from Him, we can do nothing.
  • Fruit Requires Pruning – God lovingly removes what hinders growth so we can become more fruitful.
  • Fruit Takes Time – Spiritual growth doesn’t happen overnight, but in God’s perfect timing.

We also see something stirring in Gen Z. Across the U.S. and beyond, reports are pointing to a spiritual resurgence among young people. Bibles are selling at record numbers. Revival is breaking out in unexpected places. And Jesus’ words ring true: “Apart from me, you can do nothing.”


The challenge for us all:
 Are you connected to the Vine? Are you allowing the Gardener to prune your life? Will you trust His timing and bear fruit that glorifies God?

Fruit doesn’t come from trying harder — it comes from abiding deeper.
