The Seed And The Sower - Part 2

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 1, 2016

The parable of the seed and the Sower is a snapshot of any society and most likely any congregation. How a person responds to the Word of God indicates what type of soil they are. The seed is perfect. The Sower is generous. What type of soil are you?

Parable Of The Sower

Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jan 26, 2021

Gaining A Heart Of Wisdom Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 16, 2021

Life is short! We must invest our time in that which is of eternal value. All that glitters is not gold. The vanities of this world are of much less value than "gaining a heart of wisdom" (Ps. 90:12). This message leads into Jesus's parable about finding a treasure in Matthew 13:44.

What do you value most in life? The question is not what you should value most. The question is what do you value most in life? The answer to that question is not found in what we say we value. The answer is found in how we invest our lives—how we invest the precious minutes, hours, and days of ...read more
