A Fruitful Life

At the heart of the Gospel message is the image of a ‘fruitful life’—allowing Jesus to live his life in us and through us. This new book from Tony Horsfall ponders the teaching of Jesus in John 15, the famous ‘vine’ passage. An understanding of what Jesus was saying here will prepare us to be effective witnesses in a hostile world. Includes material for individual reflection and questions for group discussion.

From: The Methodist Recorder – 07 June 07 The 15th chapter of St John's Gospel - the familiar 'vine' passage - has been inspirational to many down the years. In his book, A Fruitful Life, Tony Horsfall takes us through this chapter looking at each verse with the aim of helping us fully appreciate what a life lived abiding in Christ really means. Why do we need to abide? Because 'apart from him we can do nothing'. Each section offers material for individual reflection and also sensible questions for group discussion.
