As we near the end of chapter 4 in the Gospel of Mark, Jesus expands on the parable of the Sower, using a parable story only found in Mark.

We have a look at what is the difference between the footwork business and the results business. Which one is ours and which one is God’s.

Below in the sermon notes and just below that all our contact information.

“You contribute nothing to your salvation except the sin that made it necessary.” -Jonathan Edwards

In what way are you sowing the seeds you have been given? If you are sowing seed, are you

trying to make it grow? Are you taking responsibility or trying to take the credit?

If so, what can you do to let God do his work and handle His business? If your not even

bringing the seeds to the field, what can you do better to do your business? To prepare

yourself for the work that is yours?
