Fruitfulness

Jesus draws on imagery from Isaiah 5 in his call to his disciples to be fruitful (John 15:1-17). Also see another use of this passage in Mark 12:1ff. God calls us to be fruitful. Something is supposed to happen when we live a life of faith.

Radical Hospitality

The hospitality we see in scripture, particularly in the story of the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25, takes us far beyond merely being friendly.

Connectional Ministry

The Christian life cannot be lived in isolation. God made us so we need each other. Thinking fractally, individual congregations need a living connection with other congregations.
