Two Parables of Seeds Growing (Part 2)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses two parables about the growth of seeds. The first parable describes how some people receive the word of God and bear fruit, while others do not. The second parable conveys how the growth of the kingdom of God is dependent on God's work and not just on human efforts. Gregg highlights the importance of understanding the message behind these parables and encourages individuals to mature as part of a larger Christian community by cooperating with God's work.
