“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 (ESV)
To bear fruit in our lives, we need to stay connected to the Vine. The Vine is Jesus. We learn about Jesus and what He has done for us in God’s Word, the Bible. The Branches is a women’s magazine that points to the Vine throughout its pages, and provides encouragement to women of any age.
