We all love stories, especially mysteries. When we were young children, our parents, grandparents, or friends would read us stories. Stories and mysteries are passed down from generation to generation. This book is about a story and a mystery, and who doesn’t love a good mystery? The Parable of the Four Soils concerns a sower (Jesus) who scatters seed (The Word), which falls on four different types of ground (the hearts of people). The wayside soil (the closed, hardened, and neglected heart) prevents the seed from sprouting at all, and the seed becomes nothing more than bird food. The ...

SECRETS OF A FRUITFUL HEART is a powerful, in-depth exploration of Jesus' Parable of the Sower. The wayside soil represents places in our hearts that have been trampled hard. The stones represent pockets of compromise that hinder our roots. The weeds represent cares and pleasures that choke our fruitfulness.

This book is a compelling resource for every disciple who wants to be more fruitful.

Jesus used Parables to illustrate truths of the Kingdom of God and Lifestyle Principles in a way that people could relate to in the context in which they lived. They involved everyday situations that everyone could relate to, and Jesus used these stories to draw hearers into something deeper - and He does the same for us today as we read them. These aren’t just clever stories and wise teachings, they show us the good news of Jesus! They encourage us to analyze our lives, to stimulate a decision, to transform our behaviour from the inside out.

By synthesizing current research in the social sciences, Schwartz makes the counterintuitive case that eliminating choices can greatly reduce the stress, anxiety, and busyness of our lives. He offers eleven practical steps on how to limit choices to a manageable number, have the discipline to focus on the important ones and ignore the rest, and ultimately derive greater satisfaction from the choices you have to make.

Jesus was an amalgamation of profundity and simplicity. God and human. Redeemer become servant. Creator and carpenter. Lord and sacrificial lamb. Because he was god he spoke with authority, and his words still resonate today.

This parable should really be entitled “The Parable of the Soil”, because the story, and the truths emphasized therein, do not focus on the one sowing seed. The focus of the story is about the soil.
