Rooted in Joy, Chosen in Love

May 5, 2024 • Abigail Baker

Two graduating seniors reflect on Jesus' farewell words in John 15. Abigail Baker contrasts the fleeting happiness of a singing novelty fish with the lasting joy that comes from remaining in God's love, urging listeners to water their tree of faith with scripture, prayer and forgiveness. A second senior recalls a homesick first week at Camp Weed and hears in Jesus' words, you did not choose me but I chose you, God's promise to go before her into the unknown.
