Fruit Production

Fruit Production

Passage: Luke 13:1-9

Speaker: Rev. Rafe Vigil

The purpose of Lenten spiritual disciplines is not to see if we can do it for 40 days; it is for a changed heart so we can produce fruit of the Kingdom. The practice of spiritual disciplines is to format our hearts and lives around our walk with Christ. The purpose is growth, new life, hope, change. I know change is a scary word. However, if we keep doing the same things, we will keep getting the same results. A faith that is not growing is dead. What use is a fruit tree that does not produce fruit? It is very frightening to let God work with us, to walk with Christ and allow him to grow something productive in us. It is frightening to respond, “here I am send me”.
