Abide. Remain. Stay. Connect.

Jesus said: “I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:1-8). What a wonderful saying! But it is a poke in the eye to those of us self-sufficient types who will “do it myself.” This episode explores the feelings and thoughts prompted by this famous “I Am” saying of Jesus, particularly when it comes to our connectedness. Music by Nate Strasser with guest, Ellie Jones.
