Rooted in the Spirit: Growing a Life that Looks Like Jesus

What does it really mean to live like Jesus, not just in what we say, but in who we are becoming? In this summer sermon series, Rooted in the Spirit, we'll explore the fruit of the Spirit, not as a checklist for self improvement, but as the visible evidence of God's grace at work within us. In the United Methodist tradition, this is called sanctification; being shaped and formed into holiness through love. These are not traits we force; they are fruit that grows when our lives are deeply rooted in Christ.  Jesus tells us in John 15 that when we remain connected to the vine, our lives will bear fruit. This series invites us to slow down, stay connected, and allow the Holy Spirit to cultivate a life taht truly looks like Jesus.
