How to Be Good Soil

As cotton farmers gather in the last of the harvest, it is a good time to remember that a good return depends on good soil. Farmers throughout time have known the necessity of having fertile ground; thus, it is no surprise that Jesus compared the heart’s receptiveness of the word of God to seed and soil. After discussing the soils that reject a good harvest, He spoke of the ground that produced bountifully. It is this type of heart that is essential for a bountiful spiritual harvest. In this study, we will explore what it means to prepare our hearts so that God’s word can change us to become like Him.A sermon recording given by Greg Chandler on November 14, 2021.
