Mark and Eric give an old parable a fresh look, asking how the story of the sower and the seed changes when we do not read the American "gospel" back into the story. Instead, they ask what it means that Jesus says the Kingdom of God is a mystery like this... and then tells a mashall. Along the way, Mark gives some big hooks on how to read the book of Mark and unpacks farming in the rural Mediterranean world. Finally, Mark and Eric as what it looks like to grow 100 times in the modern world. We hope you love it. Heart, Mark and Eric.
