Summary: <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The sower in Jesus' parable in Matthew 13 doesn't strategically target 'the right soil' when he sows his seed. He scatters it everywhere. Just like God's grace - people don't have to live up to a certain standard to receive his love. </span></p><br> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">How do we let the Word 'get in, get down, get out' and so have a fruitful life? Jesus says that it's all about how we respond (or not) to his word, which is the life-giving word of the good news of the Kingdom.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This sermon was preached at <a title="PLC website" href="http://www.pakenhamlakesidechurch.org.au">Pakenham Lakeside Church</a> on Sunday 23rd July 2017.
