Week 1 | New Wine

Jan 6, 2024    Tim Gillespie

Luke 5:37 “And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the new wine would burst the wineskins, spilling the wine and ruining the skins. 38 New wine must be stored in new wineskins. 39 But no one who drinks the old wine seems to want the new wine. ‘The old is just fine,’ they say.”


Our first series for 2024 is entitled “New Wine.” This series takes on the metaphor of both the new wine and old wineskins and the metaphors of the Vineyard, The Gardener, and the Vine and the Branches. All of these metaphors lead us to one thing: God is faithful to be a good gardener, the Vine of which we are branches and New Wine. We will be discussing Spiritual Disciplines, why we sometimes need to throw off old traditions and find new containers for what God is giving us, and how we can consistently follow a faithful God in 2024. 


When you use the New Wine Daily Series Guide with the new Daily Abide podcast and the Sermons each week, your spiritual growth will develop more quickly than you have experienced in the past. We give you these resources so that you can follow along with us and grow in grace. We understand how busy you are and that there are different modes of learning, so these are delivered in audio podcasts as well as PDF formats. 


Thank you for joining us every day throughout 2024 as we grow together as disciples of Jesus Christ.
