Figs, Fakes & Faith

 â€¢ Series: Remarkable

(Pastor Michael Siggelkow) Are you struggling to bear fruit in your spiritual life? Have you ever wondered why Jesus cursed the fig tree, and what we can learn from it? Explore the deeper meaning behind this practical parable and discover how we can turn towards God to produce fruit beyond what we can imagine. Jesus didn't kill something good or alive when He cursed the fig tree, but spoke truth to what was already there. He could see the roots of the tree and the hearts of the Israelites, who were not grounded in a love or pursuit of God. But what about us? What do our trees look like right now? Are we bearing fruit or only leaves? What's hindering us from producing more fruit, and what should we be asking Jesus for?
