In the 15th chapter of the Gospel of John<\/a>, Jesus tells his followers how they can better understand their relationship with him. He says, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me, you can do nothing.”<\/p>\n

Those words take on even more meaning when you own a vineyard, witness the grapes grow and tend to their spiraling branches.<\/p>\n

At least that’s how it is for the Savaryn family of Waconia, Minnesota, at their vineyard, Sovereign Estate, where they’re living out that verse every day.<\/p>\n

“A lot of people think about the vine being the wispy, long, tenderly thing that grows, but it’s not. That’s the branch,” co-owner Terri Savaryn told Fox News.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The vine is the actual woody, gnarly, deep-rooted plant that’s grown. … It’s very strong. … So when Christ says he’s the vine, he’s a real anchor to everything.”<\/p>\n

Savaryn’s 30-acre vineyard, which sits on the banks of Lake Waconia in the south-central part of the state, is a testament to the legacy of the Savaryn clan’s core values: faith, family, beauty, excellence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Once we committed to the idea that we would be doing God’s work whatever way we presented our wine,<\/a> it became part of our values for how we would pursue the whole business,” Savaryn said.<\/p>\n

For many people of faith<\/a> who view wine as an evil, it may be surprising to hear a person who’s part of the Body of Christ admit that wine is good.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But almost every book in the Bible mentions wine or vines or vineyards.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Deuteronomy, God calls wine\u00a0the “blood of the grape.” And it’s this cryptic reference that takes on a much deeper meaning in the New Testament when Jesus pours the wine at the Last Supper<\/a>, saying, “This is my blood, poured out for you.”<\/p>\n

The Bible never calls wine evil \u2013 only the overindulgence of it.<\/p>\n

If you visit Sovereign Estate grounds, the faith part of their winemaking is actually quite subtle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The rustic chandelier in the retail store is made of vines. It also resembles a Crown of Thorns to those familiar with the crucifixion of Jesus.\u00a0A short scripture is on the back of every label.<\/p>\n

The only noticeable element of faith<\/a> amid the private cabanas, wine-tasting room and the sprawling grounds around a small concert venue is a serene garden next to a small pond that’s dedicated to the Virgin Mary.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Otherwise, the vineyard appears as any other that’s trying to make its mark in what has become a $325 billion industry<\/a> in the United States. Some of Sovereign’s wines have even won international awards and competitions.<\/p>\n

On an upcoming episode of the “Lighthouse Faith” podcast, Savaryn and her husband, Paul, talk about the faith that built the vineyard.<\/p>\n

They share how Paul’s father, a doctor and immigrant<\/a> from Ukraine, started a hospital and bought up farm property on the shores of one of Minnesota’s 10,000 lakes; and how it turned out that the elevation was perfect for vine-growing and the newly developed, cold-climate grape from the University of Minnesota.<\/p>\n

She also talks about her sons, Isaac and Ben, and how they are the vital caretakers of the vineyard.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Isaac, who studied viticulture and enology at Washington State University, is in charge of tending to the vines.<\/p>\n

Ben is the winemaker, whose skills are more intuitive than calculated. He’s called it a mystical experience because, left alone, grapes will become wine on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Sovereign” is not only how their name is pronounced but what God’s presence means in their lives. He is sovereign.<\/p>\n

“I thank God every time I pick up a glass of wine for the wonderful thing he left us on earth to enjoy and console us without him being here,” Savaryn said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“And I’m looking forward to being in heaven and enjoying all the fruits of the vine.”<\/p>\n
