They discuss some of the things the Vineyard specifically has been given to steward for the sake of the world that we must freely give away, being sensitive to the Lord in each moment as we live Naturally Supernatural lives so that our relationship with the Holy Spirit is not formulaic or driven by our desired results, and the ways Heart of the Vineyard can be used in your local church.
