Hi, this is Justin.
Today on Theocast, we are talking about one of those passages of Scripture that is very often misunderstood and misapplied.
We're discussing none other than John chapter fifteen, where Jesus tells us that if we abide in him, we will produce much fruit.
What does it mean to abide in Jesus?
And what does he mean when he tells us that we will produce much fruit?
We will discuss that in much more on the regular episode.
And then, when we head into the members podcast, we're going to talk about various issues related to John 15, including lordship salvation, total depravity, and sanctification.
We hope this conversation is helpful to you.
Stay tuned.
Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ.
Conversations about the Christian life from a reformed perspective.
Our hosts today are John Moffat, pastor of Community Bible Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee, and myself, Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
Our brother, our friend Jimmy Bueller, is not able to join us this morning.
He is a church planner, friends, so what can we say?
He's a busy man.
And a pastor of, and a pastor, and a dad of three children, young children.
So, in other words, he's got some stuff going on.
So, we'll miss having Jimmy on the podcast today, but we're excited for the conversation that we are about to have.
John, there's only me and you, bro.
So it seems like it only makes sense that you're going to give us the cultural update.
