TCX Theme: Fused?














Every January, a team of Cru student leaders from around the region gathers in Minneapolis to carefully select the theme for the next TCX conference. Last January, the students selected the word "Fused" - adding a reference to John 15, when Jesus talks about being the vine. Each session, the speakers made references to what happens when we abide in Christ, and stay connect to the vine.

Crawford Loritts, a pastor from Atlanta, spoke of our responsibility to pass along what we've learned. "Our walk with God is not just about us. Branches do not eat the fruit they produce." Tom Henderson, a pastor from Sioux Falls, spoke of the correlation between remaining fused to the vine amidst wrestling with deep sins in our lives.

Those are just a few of the connections made as students were encouraged and challenged to live a life that is fused to Christ.
