Exist for Others | Pastor Ed Langeliers | January 25th, 2026

This powerful message invites us into a deeper understanding of what it means to be connected to Jesus as branches to a vine. Drawing from John 15:5, we're reminded that apart from Him, we can do nothing—but when we remain in Him, we bear much fruit. The teaching beautifully weaves together personal testimonies of transformation, showing how ordinary people like Sunday school teachers, beef farmers, and young missionaries became instruments of God's kingdom simply by existing for others. We're challenged to examine whether we truly love ourselves the way God loves us—with patience, kindness, and without the harsh self-criticism that so often plagues us. The imagery of being 'plugged into the tree' of Jesus is both simple and profound: when we're connected to Him, His life flows through us naturally, making us 'sappy' with His presence. This isn't about striving or performing; it's about receiving His nutrients and letting them overflow into the lives of those around us. The message calls us beyond mere church attendance into active mobilization, reminding us that we're saved not just from something, but for something—to be part of God's army, rising up to change the world one person at a time.
