This Sunday, we will hear a message from Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23, where Jesus tells the Parable of the Sower, where seeds fall on four types of soil: the path (taken by birds), rocky ground (withers due to lack of roots), among thorns (choked), and good soil (produces a fruitful harvest).
Jesus explains that the seeds represent God’s message, and the soil symbolizes different responses: rejection, shallow enthusiasm, distractions, or fruitful acceptance. Those who receive the message in good soil hear, understand, and bear fruit. The parable highlights the importance of a receptive heart in responding to God’s word.
