Show Notes
Have you ever felt spiritually stuck? Like you're doing all the right things but still feel disconnected from God? In this episode, Madi and Grant unpack one of Jesus' most powerful teachings in John 15: abiding. So often we focus on producing fruit, finding our purpose, or becoming the person God has called us to be, but Jesus points us to something deeper. Before fruitfulness comes connection. Before impact comes intimacy. Together, Madi and Grant discuss why so many Christians are exhausted from striving, what it actually means to remain in Christ, and how abiding is less about trying harder and more about staying close to Jesus. They talk about the subtle ways we drift from dependence on God, why pruning is a necessary part of growth, and how a vibrant relationship with Jesus transforms every area of our lives. Our prayer is that this episode would encourage you to slow down, draw near to Jesus, and experience the peace, joy, and fruit that come from remaining in Him. New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST 🤍

She unpacks how to take your eyes off yourself, follow the way of Jesus, and find true freedom by living for something greater than yourself.
