The Better Farewell: Abide, Apart, Ask

As we come to some of the "glorious peaks" of the Farewell Discourse, this episode brings us to some of our very favorite verses: John 15:1-8—where we get the language to "abide in the Vine."

But how do we persevere through a "long obedience in the same direction" when life is unpredictable and winds around (and within!) us rage? This week, we welcome special guest Martin Mallory to the table with Jeff. Stephanie (who is writing this caption) deliberately stepped out of the way so we could all sit and hear some fatherly wisdom.

Martin serves alongside Jeff on the FAI Board of Directors, and also shepherds the FAI family as the Director of Pastoral Care. We love and are grateful for both these dads in our family.

Grab some coffee and a copy of John's Gospel, and let the Holy Spirit minister to and strengthen you in this episode.
