Week 2 of the Sermon Series: Fruit That Lasts – Living the Spirit-Filled Life

- A tree grows strong not because life is easy, but because it stands against the wind, storms, and fire.

- In the same way, God uses pruning and pressure to strengthen what connects our hidden roots to our visible fruit.

- Pruning is not punishment—it is preparation.

- It removes distractions, reorders priorities, and refines purity so that Christ’s life can flow through us unhindered.
