Fruitful and Flourishing

About this Message

As a new year begins, most of us feel the tension of wanting life to grow in a better direction—without quite knowing how. We’re busy, stretched, distracted, and often carrying more than we realize.

In this message, we explore an ancient idea with surprising relevance: a "rule of life"—the rhythms, habits, and practices that quietly shape who we’re becoming. Through three vivid images—a monastery, a vineyard, and an invitation from Jesus—we’re invited to consider how real fruitfulness doesn’t come from trying harder, but from staying connected and being formed over time.

Jesus’ promise is simple and startling: rest for your soul. This message is an invitation to slow down, remain connected to him, and thoughtfully shape the patterns of your everyday life so that growth happens naturally—from the inside out. Whether you’re feeling weary, hopeful, or somewhere in between, this is a moment to pause and ask: What is forming me—and where is it leading?
