Pastor Ben and Julie Nobles are on a church planting journey. They have a God-given desire to be part of a church that looks like Revelation 7:9 where all nations, tribes, people, and tongues are unified (but not uniform) in they're worship of God.
The problem is we're so divided on scriptural interpretations and applications that our churches are more segregated and divided than ever in the history of the church. Why 2,000 years post resurrection does the church splinter even more?
Our conviction is to unify all people to ultimately Bear Good Fruit as we grow spiritually.
The Compost Bin is where the unused portions from Sunday's sermons get thrown into, mulled over, and prayerfully become fertilizer that fuels deeper and more fruitful growth in our soil.
In a New Series at Tree of Life Church, the pastors are processing through Ephesians a chapter at a time. This conversation centers on predominant themes in chapter 1 that were "predestined" to be controversial.
We hope this conversation invites you to wrestle and process SO THAT we all can grow deeper roots and bear better fruit.
