Some people believe that you have to wait until you die to know for sure whether or not you truly belong to God and get to spend eternity in Heaven.  Not true!  God wants you to live a victorious life for His glory right now, confident not only of where you will spend eternity (1 John 5:13), but also in His love and your identity as His child.  Not sure whether or not you belong to God?  Don’t wait another day to find out!

As Jesus considered His last remaining moments with His disciples before His crucifixion, He made sure they knew everything that was most important for the uncertain future they were walking into. In John 15, Jesus reminded His disciples that they were created for connection—with God and one another. For them to thrive after His death, they were going to need to learn to "be the branch."

Near the end of his life, John was the last of the living apostles and wrote a story about Jesus. It’s his testimony of who Jesus is, what he said, what he did, and who he claimed to be. Jesus has a story. He invites us to make it our story. When we make Jesus’s story our story, we have life in his name. This plan focuses on Jesus’s final moments and words with his disciples, preparing them for his crucifixion to come. It is Jesus’s last will & testament. This plan focuses on the first half of Jesus's words in John 15 and is part of an ongoing series.
