Jesus's words in the fifteenth chapter of the Gospel of John are so much more powerful when you're the owner of a vineyard; when you witness the grapes growing on the vines and tend to its spiraling branches. For the Savaryn family of Waconia, Minnesota, their vineyard, Sovereign Estate, is an everyday living out of, "I am the vine and you are the branches".  While
California produces over 80 percent of the wine output in America, the 30-acre vineyard that sits on the banks of Lake Waconia in the south central part of the North Star state, is a testament to the legacy of the Savaryn clan's core values: Faith, Family, Beauty and Excellence. It's also a dynamic part of what has become a $325 billion dollar industry in the United States: Wine and the making of it. Some of Sovereign's wines have even won international awards and competitions. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Terri Savaryn, the co-founder and owner along with her husband Paul, talks about the faith that built the vineyard; how Paul's father, a doctor and immigrant 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. But most of all, how Sovereign is not only how their name is pronounced, but what God's presence means in their lives: He is Sovereign.
