Root of the Fruit (Day 2.5)

Welcome back to the Bible Cafe! Grab your favorite coffee, tea, lemonade or just cold water and join us in this online study.

We’re at the end of week two and we’ve learned about our fruit and roots. I live near several wineries and everywhere I go, I see fully grown vines ready to bear fruit. The root is the key to a productive vineyard. Jennifer Rothschild explains the link between the roots (faulty assumptions) and fruit (our thoughts) and how to clean up our vineyard.
