    So what does this parable reveal about the Kingdom of God. It describes how the Word of God produces fruit (i.e., how the kingdom grows)

    THE GROWING SEED—Mark 4:26-29 TEXT He also said, "This is what the kingdom of God is like. A man scatters seed on the ground. 27 Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up, the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how. 28 All by itself the soil produces grain--first the stalk, then the ...read more

    Looking at the Parable of the Sower as a true parable, rather than an allegory.

    We are a bit past the growing season here in NJ. But the farmers’ markets are still booming with the harvest of seeds that were planted back in the spring. We have had extreme weather this year – first wet, then dry, with a miserable heat wave in the middle. I’m not sure it has been a bumper ...read more

    So many churches out there today desire to change the world, the only problem is that they do not desire to change themselves first. In order to change the fruit of the ministry you must first check your roots!

    • Focusing on Church growth what would you say that it is instituted or measured? o In Numbers? o In Evangelism? o In Money? o In a beautiful facility? o In a parking lot filled with new and expensive cars? o In the church with a plethora of ministries? • Too often churches and people when focusing ...read more

    Like an unexpectedly huge mustard plant, the kingdom will grow and comfort, in unexpected ways.

    Like Malformed Mustard Mark 4:30-32 The kingdom of God is like a VW Beetle. It is one of the smallest cars you will ever see. It is not very comfortable or powerful. It is not very stylish or practical. It is very cheap and not impressive in any way. There is no status with owning one. And yet, ...read more

    Jesus said that we, as His disciples, are to bear fruit. God told Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply, replenish the earth, and subdue it. The fruitful, the multiplying, and the other things are not all the same thing; in other words, it means mor

    I must admit, that while I’ve read this little section of Scripture many times, I have usually read over it pretty quickly, not taking the time to understand it’s meaning.

    If the gospel is good news why doesn’t everyone respond with joy? Jesus says he tells parables to filter out those who can't understand.

    Do you see what I see? When you look at this picture, I wonder what you see? A young lady in silhouette, or a cartoon man playing the saxophone? There’s only one picture, but people see different things. By the end of Mark 3, the disciples must be wondering the same thing about Jesus. How ...read more
