Lessons From the Farm
Presented From: Aug 22, 2004 To: Sep 19, 2004
Jesus began one of his most famous parables, “A farmer went out to plant seeds…” He frequently used illustrations from the farm to teach his disciples about growing spiritually, the practices that help us become deeply committed Christians, and the struggles we face in experiencing the joy of the Christian life. This sermon series is a study of Jesus’ lessons from the farm and other New Testament teachings regarding the spiritual life.
Consider how the relentless onslaught of weeds in a garden teaches us about the many challenges to the Christian life. Learn how the process of putting up hay helps us understand one of the most important ingredients to spiritual maturity. Consider the intriguing connection between manure and the Christian life. And look at how harvest time teaches us about the life that pleases God. Each message includes humorous stories and interviews with actual farmers from the area to help us understand these biblical principles for growing in the Christian life.
