How do you respond when God cuts something out of your life? In this episode, Amanda Gonzalez and Karissa Robinson unpack Pastor Julie’s message, “The Key to a Fruitful Life.” You’ll learn how to trust God through the pruning process and stay connected to Jesus through every season.

SHOW NOTES

So Good Moments: 

  • What “cut off” really means, according to the original Greek translation.
  • Practical resources to study Scripture. 
  • What it looks like to stay connected to the vine and bear lasting fruit.
  • Why we can’t produce unless we get pruned.    
  • Why pruning is not punishment and the importance of giving people permission to speak into your life.  
  • Amanda’s favorite summer snack and more!
