In this episode, we dive into the powerful moment when Jesus cursed the barren fig tree—a symbol and warning for all of us. The fig tree looked healthy on the outside but produced no fruit, just as many people claim faith but show no evidence of it in their lives. Jesus makes it clear: if we do not bear fruit, we risk the same fate. John 15 reminds us that we must remain in Him—abide in His presence and obey His commands—to produce the fruit that honors God. This is not about empty religion or surface-level belief; it’s about a transformed life that reflects Christ in action, word, and heart. Are you producing fruit, or just looking the part?

In this follow-up to our last episode, we dive deeper into the truth that while God’s blessings are real and His promises are sure, they also require something from us. We can't expect to walk in the fullness of what God has for us if we’re not willing to be faithful stewards of what He’s already given. This episode is a call to action—a reminder that obedience, discipline, and stewardship unlock the blessings we so often pray for. God is not a vending machine; He’s a Father who trusts us with His gifts.

In this episode of Everyday Faith, we dive into a powerful truth: Jesus has already done everything we could ever ask for—and more. Too often, we treat our relationship with God like a transaction, expecting blessings in exchange for our obedience. But the gospel isn’t about earning favor; it’s about receiving a gift that’s already been given. Jesus paid the price in full. Our focus shouldn’t be on what we want God to do next, but on who He already is and what He’s already done. Let this episode realign your heart and renew your faith in the finished work of Christ.
