A wonderful meditation on John 15:1-8 is offered here by Dr. Eddie Gibbs. He is Director for the Institute for the Study of Emerging Churches at the Brehm Center for Worship, Theology, and the Arts, and is a senior professor in the School of Intercultural Studies at Fuller Theological Seminary.
"The two questions that all servants of Christ need to ask themselves are: “What do I want to be known for at the end of my life?” The second is, “How can I finish well?” The secret of finishing well is to abide in Christ, and to submit to his pruning, no matter how painful. Fruitfulness is not the result of what we do, but is the outcome of who we are.'
