The Parable of the 4 Types of Ground (Or The Parable of the Sower)
The parable of the sower is a very familiar story in the New Testament. Jesus tells the crowd this parable while sitting in a boat on the Sea of Galilee. Most teaching on this parable revolves around the 4 types of ground. There is the path, the rocky ground, the thorny ground and the good soil. This week, let’s not only think about the 4 types of ground, let’s think about the sower. After all, it’s always called the parable of the sower, but the sower never get any attention at all. This week we fix that. – Rick Oldenkamp
