About this Episode

We explore how to love God with all your soul by abiding in Christ, embracing pruning, and choosing habits that fuel a living relationship. John 15 and James 4:8 frame a practical path: cut what hinders, feed what helps, and trust God to meet you as you draw near.

• the call to abide in Christ as the source of fruit
• the garden metaphor of pruning and growth
• mortification of sin and vivification of holy desire
• identifying distractions that drain spiritual focus
• adding presence, people, and word as core practices
• the promise of James 4:8 to draw near and be met
