    The Parable Of The Sower Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 11, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,598 views

    Not everyone you share the gospel with will have hardened hearts. You should have hope. There are those who will receive the gospel for what it is, the words of eternal life.

    Why is it that one person responds to the gospel and is deeply moved and all they can think and talk about is sharing Christ with others while at the same time another person seems unmoved that Jesus died for them? You find one person moved to tears by the gospel and another cold and distant. Not ...read more

    A short sermon looking at the point of parables to get people to think about the message of Jesus, and a call to us to be ’yeast’ in God’s hands.

    I was chatting to David Lowman – the Archdeacon of Southend – this week. We were talking about ‘preaching’ – for example length of sermon, quality of sermon, and the coherence of sermons. David said that sometimes he goes to a Church and preaches and people say, “Thank you. I could hear every word ...read more

    Often used as the basis for teaching stewardship principles (tithing, time, etc.), perhaps this parable is meant by Jesus to teach stewardship of something a little more important?

    The Parable of Jesus The Parable of the Talents Matthew 25:14-30 August 30, 2009 This week is the parable of the talents. We’ll be looking at Matthew’s parable of the talents specifically. Luke has a very similar version. However, the details have been changed (such as talents become minas) and ...read more

    Its not all about the soil - its about the sower too.

    Matthew 13:1-9 (The Message) Parables are stories Jesus told that tell us something about the Kingdom of God. They are though about concealing and not just revealing the truth. If you want to understand the message you have to be prepared to delve deeper than the simple story. But the ...read more

    This Epiphany Sermon reflects on how God has to reveal the seemingly obvious meaning of things to us in order for us to come and worship Christ like the Wise Men.

    January 8, 2006 Matthew 13:10-17 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” He replied, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.

    "Behold, the sower went out to sow." Missing from this parable are the words, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to.”

    "Behold, the sower went out to sow." Missing from this parable are the words, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to.” There must be some good reason why Jesus omitted these words from the first parable. The reason why they are omitted is not a mystery. The kingdom of heaven is an expression ...read more

    In our passage today we look at three parables of Jesus, and each parable contains a paradox about God’s Kingdom.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Jack Wyrtzen used lots of stories in his preaching. One day someone was talking with one of the Word of Life staff members and said, “I heard Jack preach one of his “skyscraper messages” the other night.” The staff member asked what he meant by a “skyscraper message” ...read more
