    Contributed by John Campbell on Apr 2, 2001
    based on 81 ratings
     | 12,361 views

    A comparison of two farmers - why one is sad, and one is carefree.

    A Sower Went Out To Sow His Seed I would like to compare two farmers, or sowers of seed, this morning. They are very different in their outlook. First let’s look at the one in our gospel lesson, Luke 8:4-15. This man goes out to sow his seed, but he is not a very careful sower, is he? Some of ...read more

    As followers of Jesus we are to be committed to excellence in every sense of the word.

    Commitment To Excellence Luke 8:4-15 Commitment is key. No matter what it is that we are talking about there is no greater determining factor than our commitment.

    There is a link betweenChrist’s Temptation and the Parable of the The Sower.

    There is a link between the Parable of the The Sower and Christ’s Temptation. A. Things of Need 1. In Christ’s temptation there is need for bread (Luke 4:3-4). While He was hungry (vs. 2), He did not fall for Satan’s ploy. 2. In the Parable of the The Sower there is need for a path (Luke 8:5, ...read more

    The abundant Christian life is a choice that starts with how we listen and respond to the Word of God.

    Intro: There once was a not so bright fellow who saw an advertisement for a cruise. The sign in the travel agency window read “Cruise -- $100 Cash.” I’ve got a hundred dollars, he thought. And I’d like to go on a cruise. So he entered the door and announced his desires. The fellow at the desk ...read more

    The Seed Of Change Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 5, 2001
    based on 24 ratings
     | 7,980 views

    God brings change to our world slowly, one person at a time, but with dynamic results.

    I guess the parable of the sower is a familiar one to most of us. It’s one of those stories that have been told and retold countless times. So the danger is that when we hear it again we can think we already understand everything that there is to learn from it. Yet God’s word is living and active, ...read more

A stranger stopped for a drink of water and just to pass the time of day he asked: "How is your cotton coming along?" he asked. "Ain’t got none," replied the farmer.

    Obstacles To Maturity

    Contributed by Chris Tiller on Oct 24, 2005
    based on 11 ratings
     | 8,321 views

    In the parable of the sower and the seeds, Jesus identifies three categories of obstacles to maturity.

    The Bible uses a lot of agricultural metaphors. The prophet Isaiah describes Judah as a vineyard planted on a fertile hillside. “He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines. He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well. Then he looked for a crop ...read more

    Redefining The Family Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 24, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,101 views

    What is God’s Family and how do you join it? Jesus redefines family, contrasts it with our earthly family and tells us how to join and what it’s like in his family.

    The idea of family is always morphing in our society. Just in the past fifty years we’ve gone from June Cleaver to Uma Thurman. In the 1950’s the woman wore pearls and waited in high heels for her man to come home so she could greet him with a martini, a paper and dinner on the table. Today in ...read more

    Is the gospel really getting rooted into your heart, or is it being choked and killed through neglect and the cares of life?

    ROOTS By Pastor Jim May How many of you have a green thumb? I can’t make that claim. It seems that I have a hard time making anything grow the way that it should. Last spring I decided to plant a small garden. I don’t have a tractor or a tiller so I had to break up the ground with a shovel. ...read more

    to hear with ears that really hear, to prepare our “soil” for the seed of God’s Word

    The Parable of the sower, is a very familiar portion of scripture. It can be very tempting to think to yourself, "I’ve heard this story, hundreds of times before, and there is nothing new here for me." Because we think that we know this story so well, we can close our ears to what the Lord wants to ...read more

    Communicating With God: How To Listen To God’s Voice One of the basic claims we have as Christians is that God is alive and He wants to have a relationship with us. In fact our salvation is based on the relationship we have with God. But you can not have a relationship with someone without ...read more
