Yet another church name idea to throw in the bucket

I thought of a couple before the garden idea had come out. Whether we decide to grow the garden or not, I love the connotation of these names.

The Vine

Harvest Community


The tag line for either could be...."Where seeds are planted"

If we do decide to do the garden thing, it would bring a uniqueness to our church that would be known throughout the community. The Bible has so many passages on planting and its parallels to Christian living. Here just a few that resignate with me:

Isaiah 60:21
Then will all your people be righteous and they will possess the land forever. They are the shoot I have planted, the work of my hands, for the display of my splendor.

Ezekiel 17:8
It had been planted in good soil by abundant water so that it would produce branches, bear fruit and become a splendid vine.'

Matthew 13:32
Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches."

1 Corinthians 3:7
So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.
