Figs or Thistles?

Ever stopped to think about what your words are truly producing? This conversation jumps into Jesus’ fascinating parables about vines and fig trees to explore a challenging idea: our words and actions are the ​“fruit” that shows what’s really going on inside our hearts. It’s a powerful look at why what we say matters so much, leading to a question you might just carry with you all week: are you a fig or a thistle?

But it’s not all about tough self-reflection. We also get a beautiful new picture of God — not as a distant owner demanding results, but as a patient, hands-on Gardener who knows exactly what we need. Discover how God gives us the time and care required to become fruitful, and how staying connected to Jesus, the true vine, is the secret to producing the one fruit that matters most: love.
