Abiding in Christ: grafted to the vine

Hello Financial Healers,
Today I’ll resume my series: Abiding in Christ. In this lesson, I’ll discuss being grafted to the vine, which is a concept introduced by Jesus. Consider this passage:
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. — John 15:4-5 ESV
Jesus reveals that our success in life, family, and business is entirely dependent on Him. Without Him, we are at a disadvantage.
Think about it in today’s technological terms. Advancements like AI and brain-computer interfaces are prompting the question: are humans who adopt these technologies at an advantage over those who don’t? Of course they are!
Abiding in Christ works the same way. It’s a spiritual advantage, one that connects us to the source — God. By grafting to the vine, we gain access to Christ’s eternal wisdom.
We’ll talk more about this in today’s session. Download the handout and join us live at 3:30 PM (CA time). Let’s get you on the path to Financial Healing.
