Parable of the Seeds and Soils
Theme: Adversity
Biblical Basis • Matthew 13:1-23
Jesus told a parable of a man who scattered seeds that fell on various types of soil. Because of the conditions, some did not take root and grow, while others produced abundantly. That’s what it is like when God’s Word goes out to create the fruit of faith.
Additional Text: 1 Corinthians 3:4-9
Lesson Prayer
God of Truth, you sow the seed of your Word with great abandon, generously giving your grace to all the world. Even as we see different responses to that Word, we pray that you would give us the confidence to know that your promise will bear fruit — more than we can imagine. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
