Question:
Which is my approach to God?
Main Point #1
We should stay connected to God because...
He is the true vine.
TRUE (ALÉTHINOS)
True,real,genuine,emphasizing the organic connection (authentic unity) between what it true and its source or origin.
Subpoint:
False Vine=something we connect to for temporary relief.
Subpoint:
A 12-year problem was resolved through one moment with Jesus.
Question:
How can we stay connected to Jesus, the true vine?

1. Set aside some time for only Him.
2. Invite him into your daily routine.
3. Intentionally listen for His voice.
Main Point #2
We should stay connected to God because...
He will prune us.
Pruning:
Pruning is a horticultural and silvicultural practice involving the selective removal of certain parts of a plant, such as branches, buds, or roots. Reasons to prune plants include deadwood removal, shaping (by controlling or redirecting growth), improving or sustaining health, reducing risk from falling branches, preparing nursery specimens for transplanting, and both harvesting and increasing the yield or quality of flowers and fruits…
God's pruning will...
1. Remove the dead things
2. Shape our lives
3. Sustain us
4. Create new disciples
5. Increase our fruitfulness
Subpoint:
God's pruning process will enrich my life.

Giving at The Vineyard

We don't pass a plate for tithes and offerings here at Vineyard, but we do believe that giving back through our finances is an important way to worship Jesus.
