#7: Bible Study Workshop

May 28, 2023 • Brad Parkhurst, Jonah Salyers, Cameron Parkhurst • Philippians 2, Luke 19, Psalm 77

One last tool to living from our union with Jesus: the practice of Bible Study. The Scriptures are alive, and it's a place we can go to meet with Jesus and be transformed by His words. We will hear from God and know Him more deeply just by taking the time to delve into Scripture - and it's much simpler than we might think.

// THE VINE

Jesus promised his followers "life, and life in its ABUNDANCE".... So why is it that so few of us actually experience this "fullness" of life in the day-to-day? We only begin to receive it when we (1) understand that we have been brought into UNION with Jesus, and (2) reorder our lives so we are able to receive his life, rest, and joy.

#1: "The Deep"

April 16, 2023 • Brad Parkhurst

Too many of us have been living in a "shallow" Christianity, while God Himself is beckoning us from the deep. This is the deep life God wants for us: to know that we are ONE with Jesus, and to know Him personally in such a way that we begin to experience Him and hear from Him every day. // THE VINE Jesus promised his followers "life, and life in its ABUNDANCE".... So why is it that so few of us actually experience this "fullness" of life in the day-to-day? We only begin to receive it when we (1) understand that we have been brought into UNION with Jesus, and (2) reorder our lives so we are able to receive his life, rest, and joy.

#2: "The Detached Life"

April 23, 2023 • Brad Parkhurst

Our entanglement with the world and its priorities is a huge hindrance to our ability to experience and hear from God in the day-to-day. If we are to receive more of God, we must first "detach" from what the world says is important, so that our entire lives may be reordered around our union with Jesus. // THE VINE Jesus promised his followers "life, and life in its ABUNDANCE".... So why is it that so few of us actually experience this "fullness" of life in the day-to-day? We only begin to receive it when we (1) understand that we have been brought into UNION with Jesus, and (2) reorder our lives so we are able to receive his life, rest, and joy.

#3: "Good Soil"

April 30, 2023 • Brad Parkhurst

In this message on Union with Jesus, we enter into the practice of cultivating the soil of our hearts so that we are able to receive God's words and see it produce fruit in our lives. // THE VINE Jesus promised his followers "life, and life in its ABUNDANCE".... So why is it that so few of us actually experience this "fullness" of life in the day-to-day? We only begin to receive it when we (1) understand that we have been brought into UNION with Jesus, and (2) reorder our lives so we are able to receive his life, rest, and joy.
