Pruned for Greater Purpose: John 15: 1-17

What does Jesus mean when he calls himself the "vine" and God the "gardener"? Who are the branches and what does the analogy mean? Today's sermon walks through John 15 and will summarize God's intent and heart for all of his people. Upon first look, being pruned sounds painful and harsh. But through exploration we find that it is God's work of grace that will molds us into his image.
