Contributed by Ken Henson on Jul 25, 2012

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 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

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.
