About this episode

Leon DeHaan continues his message on spiritual growth by exploring the parable of the sower and the importance of the condition of our hearts.

This Sunday, Leon DeHaan continues his message Seed & Soil with Part 2, diving deeper into the parable of the sower. Together we will look at the role of the sower and the responsibility we carry in sharing God’s Word, while also examining the four types of soil that determine how that Word takes root in our lives. The condition of our hearts matters, and the harvest we experience is shaped by how we receive what God plants. Join us as we allow God to challenge us, prepare our soil, and grow us into people who bear lasting fruit.
