Are you living the life God called you to live, or are you settling for spiritual mediocrity? In this powerful message, Pastor Jerry Dirmann teaches from John 15:5-8 about how to make your life count through abiding in Christ and bearing much fruit. Jesus promises that when you abide in Him and He in you, you WILL bear much fruit—guaranteed. This isn't about working on church staff or having perfect circumstances. It's about immediate obedience and refusing to waste the time God has given you.

Discover why Peter and Andrew immediately left their nets to follow Jesus, and what that means for your life today. Learn how Pastor Jerry's mother, working graveyard shifts while raising three sons, made an eternal impact by prioritizing discipleship. Understand why Jesus said "many are called, but few are chosen" and how you can be among the chosen who follow Him wholeheartedly.

If you've been feeling stuck, spiritually mediocre, or like your life isn't making the impact God designed, this message is for you. Pastor Jerry shares the truth that will set you free: "If you wait, you waste." The time to follow Jesus is now—immediately, not after you get your circumstances in order.

Christine Caine shares a powerful message about faith that amazes God. Drawing from Luke 7 and Mark 6, she reveals two times Jesus was amazed - once at great faith from an unlikely source, and once at unbelief from those who should have believed most.

In this inspiring message, Christine challenges us to move beyond comfortable Christianity and step into a faith that crosses the street, interrupts our plans, and believes God for the impossible. She shares her own journey from being unnamed and unwanted to leading global movements, proving that God specializes in using unlikely people in unlikely places.

Key Points:
• The crisis we face isn't political or economic - it's a faith crisis
• Familiarity with Jesus can breed laziness in our faith
• God uses interruptions and inconveniences to build His kingdom
• Faith comes by hearing the Word of God, not scrolling social media
• Your history doesn't define your destiny - Jesus does
