Sermon Recap for January 22

Sunday morning’s passage was Matthew 13:1-9. Sunday night was business meeting. My kids weren’t there, but we had a motion to adjourn just the same :)

Good Soil! Matthew 13:1-9 (audio)


Good soil!

What is Jesus talking about?

The basic understanding of this parable:

The four types of  soil

Matthew 13:18-25

How do we make sure the seed falls on good soil?

What can we do?

We cannot make seeds grow.

We ABSOLUTELY DO NOT HYBRIDIZE THE SEED WITH OTHER NONSENSE TO MAKE IT GROW BETTER!

We move  rocks

The falsehoods that keep people from taking root in Christ

We clear  thorns

The cares of this world

The blatant sinfulness of those who call themselves Christians

We prepare  soil

Encouragement, nutrients

We spread  seed

God grants the  increase   in His time

And then we repeat, every season.

Next week’s passage:

Matthew 15:1-14
