    We may all be dirt, brought out of the dust of the ground, but we have a choice of what kind of dirt we are going to be -- Path dirt? Rocky dirt? Thorny dirt? or Good dirt? We are defined by the way we respond to the Word of God!

    A few observations from the passage: 1. All the different kinds of soil received the Word of God. This is a message about people who have received the Word. 2. A complete lack of fruitfulness from all, except one. Among the people in the church, there is no fruit, except in a small group of ...read more

    Why did Jesus teach in Parables? What is the meaning of the Parable of the Sower.

    The Parable of the sower When the New Testament was written, communities were agriculturally based. A family would be allocated a section of land to farm. Also, every farmer’s plot was adjacent to their neighbor’s. Also there were no fences to separate the different fields. In order to get to the ...read more

    The Purpose Of The Parables

    Jesus Himself suggests a different reason to that which His disciples might have expected.

    THE PURPOSE OF THE PARABLES. Matthew 13:10-17; Matthew 13:34-35. It is possible to ‘Like’ Jesus without really ever knowing what He is all about. For some, He is a wonderful teacher, making ‘it’ all so much ‘easier’: yet what is ‘easy’ about, for example, Matthew 5:21-22 or Matthew 5:27-28? ...read more

    Part two of the series where we look at the soils that God's Word ministers too. We quickly see that the Word of God is powerful enough to minister to any soil given that God has prepared it to be seeded by the Word of God.

    Let’s look at the different heart conditions mentioned in this parable. I. A Hard Heart. (Uninterested Heart) Verse 4: “And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.” Fields in Israel were small and were separated from one another by paths that became like ...read more

    Each servant was motivated to serve in their own way because of their perception of their master and was rewarded accordingly. What can we learn about our relationship with God from this parable?

    This sermon was preached by our Family Minister, Scott Jewell, as a part of our Youth Sunday. It was preceded by a series of short skits that portrayed a modernized version of the Parable of Talents. The compiled video of the skits can be found at the following link: ...read more

    Parable of the Yeast We are in a series looking at some of the stories Jesus told. If we are Christians these stories matter because we are supposed to live a life like Jesus.

    This is a sermon about dong more for God with what we have. No one is excused from working for God. This message is a challenge for Christians to do more and learning that they have been given the abilities, resources, gifts etc to do so.

    In the parable of the sower, we see what could be called a Kingdom-of-Heaven condition; that is, it exhibits God’s present ruler-ship over the entire earth as He calls out a people to His name.

    Parable of the Sower The Gospel of Matthew is probably the key Gospel to the Bible, and chapter 13 is the key to this Gospel; therefore this chapter is very important. It provides us with a better understanding of the Kingdom of Heaven than any other passage. Here, Jesus for the first time ...read more

    Faithfullness in serving the Lord brings about its own rewards.

    The Parable of the Talents Matthew 25:14-18: Parables can be as exciting and challenging as detective stories.

    To be able to understand the parables of the kingdom, we must first know what is a parable?

    1. The word “parable” comes from the Greek word “paraballo”, which means “to throw alongside” and “to reach a place.” 2. The dictionary definition, “an allegorical representation of something from real life, from which a moral is drawn for instruction,” does not quite explain the purpose of Jesus’ ...read more
