Video “For a vine to grow well it needs a trellis otherwise it will bear a fraction of the fruit that it’s capable of and will be vulnerable to wild animals or disease.”
John Mark Comer explains the ancient term ‘Rule of Life’ by sharing the analogy of a trellis in a vineyard, creating a support structure that helps a vine to grow. He also unpacks what it looks like to create your own Rule of Life helping you abide in the presence of God.
John Mark Comer is the founding pastor of Bridgetown Church, Portland, a church built around the very simple idea of practicing the way of Jesus. He is also the author of six books: The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, God has a Name, Garden City, Loveology, My Name is Hope, and Live No Lies. John Mark has a Masters Degree in Biblical and Theological Studies from Western Seminary, and lives in Portland, Oregon with his wife and three children.
