The Kingdom of heaven The farmer / Die boer en die saad Luke 8:5-15 | Matthew 13:1-9 & 18-23

The Kingdom of heaven The farmer / Die boer en die saad Luke 8:5-15 | Matthew 13:1-9 & 18-23

The Kingdom of heaven Unpack the parable. What is God wanting to say to us today. Seed - word of God. Luke 8:11 | 1 Peter 1:23 Soil - humanity / all people. Sower - ?

The Kingdom of heaven Unpacking the parable. People will respond differently to the word of God. The soil - condition of the heart and mind made all the difference. We as believers represent the soil and the sower.

The Kingdom of heaven Unpacking the parable. We are responsible for our receptiveness / openness - to the word. Proverbs 4:5 Your soil will change with time, depending on how you respond. Your response will change with different seed.

The Kingdom of heaven Take home challenge. What type of soil am I ? Let God’s word change you. Jeremiah 23:29 BE GOOD SOIL!

The Kingdom of heaven Take home challenge. What was the last thing God asked you to do and how did you respond? Now go change that. BE GOOD SOIL!
