    In the parable of the sower: 1. The seed falls onto every type of soil without discrimination. 2. The different soils represent people’s different responses. 3. In the end there is a great harvest.

    Picture the scene in your mind. Jesus is teaching from a boat on the shore of the Lake of Galilee. There is a breeze blowing as he nods in the direction of a farmer in the distance. He is sowing seed in his field. As they watched the farmer at work, Jesus used the scene to teach a lesson about ...read more
