200. Aila Tasse – The Lifestyle of Abiding

We’re celebrating our 200th episode of Conversations As You Go!

Thank you for being part of this journey. With more than 30,000 listens from people all around the world, we’re grateful for the way this podcast continues to encourage and equip people to go and make disciples.


In this milestone episode, we once again hear from Aila Tasse as he shares about abiding in the Vine from John 15:1-16.

This message gets to the very heart of what it means to become truly fruitful.

Don’t skim past this episode or think, “I’ve heard this before.” Instead, take time to listen carefully to what Aila is sharing and what God wants to speak to you. As we learn to abide in Jesus, we discover that lasting fruitfulness does not come through our own effort, but through the life of Jesus flowing through us.

Our prayer is that this, our 200th episode, will help us become people who are found abiding in Christ, so that the fruit we bear will be the result of His life at work in and through us.


Key questions Aila asks:

Discovery questions from John 15:1-16

  1. What do we learn about disciple making?
  2. What principles of Kingdom movement do we learn? (How can we apply these?)

Principles Aila identifies are:

  • Remain: abiding (with Jesus)
  • Bear fruit: starting (with the DNA you want to multiply)
  • Bear much fruit: multiplying
  • Bearing fruit that will last: sustaining

Final challenge from Aila: ‘If God expects fruit, then what am I doing to see fruit in my life?’

  • What does God want to prune in my life so I can bear more fruit?
  • What areas of my own personal life does He want me to grow in so I can abide more in Him?
  • What are the prayer items He wants me to take to Him so I can bear more fruit?
