Heart Check

The Book of Mark: Part 4 - May 3, 2026

Jesus uses the Parable of the Sower to reveal that spiritual growth is less about the message and more about the condition of our hearts. While God generously spreads His truth, our response determines whether it takes root. Some hearts are hard, some shallow, and others crowded with distractions—but only a receptive heart produces lasting fruit. This message challenges us to examine what might be blocking growth in our lives. It also reminds us that change is possible through humility, repentance, and obedience. Ultimately, the question isn’t whether God is speaking, but whether we are truly listening and responding.
