I Am The Vine
Everyone wants a life full of satisfaction, happiness, joy, and beauty. We are all trying to find this in a variety of places: work, money, security, hobbies, relationship, and experiences. But at the end of day, these things cannot bring us true satisfaction – and we find ourselves running on empty. This is not a new problem, and people from ancient times to now have been trying to solve this problem. 2,000 years ago there was a man who promised an answer to this problem: his name was Jesus of Nazareth.
