.Jesus’ Parable of the Sower gives us the opportunity to be honest about the obstacles to faith we face in our busy modern lives. In this sermon, Pastor Paige invites listeners to reflect on the different types of soil Jesus talks about in Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23, and on the things that get in the way of God’s word sinking deep into their hearts. Jesus’ parable ends with an abundant harvest. That harvest is possible for us when we trust in Jesus to help us overcome obstacles to faith. No matter what kinds of soil we’ve been in the past, when we open our ears to God’s word and believe his promises, he will help our faith to grow. It will become fruitful for the sake of those God calls us to serve.

After the service, we invite you to fill out an online response card here. Also, if you are able, we invite you to partner with us by financially supporting Reformation here. Your generosity allows us to bring the hope of Jesus to Milford and beyond. Thank you!
