    The key to a fruitful and abundant life is with our response to the Word. The way we receive the Word is critical to having a fruitful and blessed life. The seed is productive only if the soil is receptive. The Word is good seed; are you the good soil?

The sower throws seed onto the ground. God is speaking to the world. • The seed falls onto the ground without ...read more
