Is your life built on the Rock of Christ Jesus?

Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.                -John 15:2-3

If a church returns to an __________________ focus, it will experience renewal and continue to be a lighthouse for the gospel, bearing fruit that will remain! If a church remains inwardly focused and guards its outdated preferences, it will decline.
