“Listen!  A farmer went out to sow his seed.  As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up.  Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil.  It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow.  But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.  Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain.  Still other seed fell on good soil.  It came up, grew and produced a crop, multiplying thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times.”   Mark 4:3-8

I listened to a great sermon about this passage by Pastor Steven Furtick called “Death by Distraction.”  If you get a chance to listen to it, I think you will really enjoy it.  Have a great day. 🙂
