    Contributed by Chris Tiller on Oct 24, 2005
    based on 11 ratings
     | 8,316 views

    In the parable of the sower and the seeds, Jesus identifies three categories of obstacles to maturity.

    The Bible uses a lot of agricultural metaphors. The prophet Isaiah describes Judah as a vineyard planted on a fertile hillside. “He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines. He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well. Then he looked for a crop ...read more

    Jesus’ Criticisms Here is a list of Jesus’ criticisms about religious leadership in his day: They did not practice what they taught (hypocrisy).

    The heart of the human problem is the problem of the human heart.

    The heart of the human problem is the problem of the human heart. That means that the heart of my problem is the problem of my heart. And the heart of your problem is the problem of your heart.

    The Seed Of Change Series

    God brings change to our world slowly, one person at a time, but with dynamic results.

    I guess the parable of the sower is a familiar one to most of us. It’s one of those stories that have been told and retold countless times. So the danger is that when we hear it again we can think we already understand everything that there is to learn from it. Yet God’s word is living and active, ...read more

    There is good physical illustration in here that catches the attention of young and old alike.

    OPEN:A Georgia farmer, ragged and barefooted, was standing on the steps of his tumbledown shack. A stranger stopped for a drink of water and just to pass the time of day he asked: "How is your cotton coming along?" he asked. "Ain’t got none," replied the farmer. "Did you plant any?" ...read more

    A comparison of two farmers - why one is sad, and one is carefree.

    A Sower Went Out To Sow His Seed I would like to compare two farmers, or sowers of seed, this morning. They are very different in their outlook. First let’s look at the one in our gospel lesson, Luke 8:4-15. This man goes out to sow his seed, but he is not a very careful sower, is he? Some of ...read more

    Communication is important and the most importnat communication is of the word of God. And when it comes to God’s word do we have ears?

    “Do We Have Ears?” Luke Chapter 8 Last week we finished up a five week series on the Impact of the Cross. I don’t know about you – BUT I really was impacted by the cross this Easter season like never before.… I don’t want to be unmoved or distressed by the cross ever again – rather I want to ...read more

    In order to experience real growth in your life, the condition of your heart will determine what God’s Word can do in your life.

    Luke 8:1-15 "How Is Your Heart?" By Rev. Mark Hiehle The Parable of the sower, is a very familiar portion of scripture. It can be very tempting to think to yourself, "I’ve heard this story, hundreds of times before, and there is nothing new here for me." Because we think that ...read more

    Commitment To Excellence Luke 8:4-15 Commitment is key. No matter what it is that we are talking about there is no greater determining factor than our commitment.

    Redefining The Family Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 24, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,095 views

    What is God’s Family and how do you join it? Jesus redefines family, contrasts it with our earthly family and tells us how to join and what it’s like in his family.

    The idea of family is always morphing in our society. Just in the past fifty years we’ve gone from June Cleaver to Uma Thurman. In the 1950’s the woman wore pearls and waited in high heels for her man to come home so she could greet him with a martini, a paper and dinner on the table. Today in ...read more
