    Saint John Paul II remarked that there are great psychological insights in the comparisons of the soils.

    15A Sower Scripturally, the parable has to do with different sorts of reception. The seed stands for the word sown.

    En la Biblia, un tipo de Corazón es"pavimentado".

    15A El Sembrador El creyente (cristiano) tiene la responsabilidad de salir continuamente a sembrar la palabra de Dios. Pero, esta parábola no pone énfasis en el sembrador, sino sobre las varias clases de terreno que reciben la semilla. Por ejemplo, los tipos de suelos en El Salvador son ...read more

    Let us understand where we find genuine Christianity deeply within people’s hearts.

    Intro, Purpose & Plan Are our hearts downtrodden, like a well-worn path? Are our hearts hard, lacking stick-to-it-iveness or thorny, laden down with worldly cares. How can we learn to become like rich soil that receives the word of the kingdom and produces a rich harvest? Let us understand where ...read more

    In his parable of the sower and the seed, Jesus shows us various kinds of spiritual heart trouble. From the story, we learn to share our faith indiscriminately, trust God to bring the growth, and cooperate with God in the growth he wants to bring in us.

    Matthew 13:3-9, 18-23 Heart Trouble Have you ever wondered why some seem to embrace God’s good news of salvation and others don’t? Have you ever wondered why God sends people to hell? Or maybe they send themselves there, as they reject the God who desires that all people be saved. Jesus used a ...read more

    The parable of the Seed and the Sower is full of spiritual insight for us as we see the world as a place where the Lord wishes to plant seeds and to harvest souls. In this first part we look mostly at the Scripture between the parable and the explanation

    Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Parable - “A short allegorical story designed to illustrate or teach some truth, religious principle, or moral lesson.” What might be an example of a simple, non-Biblical story that could be considered a parable? The Tortoise and the Hare (briefly describe) The ...read more

    The parables of Jesus are given in three of the Gospels; John is the only Gospel that doesn’t record any of His parables. Jesus used things that people were familiar with as the subject for the parables.

    Let's review our attitudes toward authority, particularly in the Church.

    21st Sunday in Course 2017: Ordinary Form Homily Is authority a divine gift? The story we read from Isaiah suggests that Shebna, the corrupt official whose name we learn in an earlier verse, was given his office by God, and cast out of that office by God. Then God raised up Eliakim ben Hilkiah to ...read more

    The parable of the sower, or more appropriately the Seed, is a parable about truth and what happens when truth is rejected. Ultimately, it's a parable of encouragement.

    We’re going to be in Mark 4 this morning. Most historians agree that the book of Mark, in a sense, is Simon Peter’s autobiography. Mark wrote his epistles based on his conversations with Peter. So, when you read Mark look at how choppy it is. It’s not like the book of Luke which sacrifices few ...read more

    Through Jesus Parables we will be given “knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven”. This knowledge is being revealed to those of you who are seekers of the deep spiritual truths of God. Some of us will understand but others won't. Why?

    Eyes, Ears and Heart Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Last year our Sunday messages went through a series of topics on a closer walk with God that taught us how to be better disciples of Jesus. You may or may not have realized it but for 30 weeks that is what I spoke about. It was my prayer that these messages ...read more

    First in a series of messages that examine Jesus' parables from the perspective of a minor or unsympathetic character.

    Several years ago I came across a book by J. Ellsworth Kalas titled Parables from the Back Side. The author’s introduction to the book begins with these words: Familiarity doesn’t always breed contempt, as the saying puts it, but it often breeds something potentially worse, the glazed ...read more

    Dangerous Grounds

    The soil, of course, represents the human heart, so the word of God falls on four different types of hearts. This parable is about salvation and three out of four of the soils represent people who are not genuinely saved.

    Opening illustration: Growing up as a teenager, my dad would take me to watch the plowing of the field and planting of wheat and sunflower. The tractor would plow deep into the hard soil of central India usually slicing the big snakes hibernating below the earth. Their mangled bodies were brought ...read more

    The parable of the Sower story with four responses by the hearers: Pay it no mind, A Passing Interest, Too Preoccupied, Perceptive and Productive.

    Most of the time in church, the focus is on the speaker and how well they are prepared to present the message. But today we have a parable about the HEARERS and how they receive the word of God. So listen up because it is all about YOU this morning. Hearing is an act of responsibility, so ...read more
