You might be wondering what Pressed Olives means. I am so glad you asked.
​
As Christians we aren't called to comfort, to safety, or to relaxation. Being a Christian means we do hard things. We are obedient to whatever the Lord asks of us. How we do that is through pressing.
We press into the presence of God and press into intimacy and relationship with Jesus Christ.
​
"I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:14
We push past our convenience and comfort and ensure relationship by setting aside our wants and desires.
​
"Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but i press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me."
philippians 3:12
​
Our roots expanding beyond our current territory, pressing out of our comfort zones. We must press deeper into the Lord's character so we can experience growth, peace, and taste true fulfillment. We do this by abiding in Jesus.
​
"I am the vine you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing."
John 15:5

-EPHESIANS 3:16-21
"I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen."
