Author Description

Potential is a terrible thing to waste, and God is calling for that potential to be drawn out. It is up to us and the church to begin that process, which 1 Corinthians 3:9 highlights by stating we are God's fields. Mathew 13:1-23 talks about what can happen when a farmer sows seeds. Outcomes may include the seed being stolen, taking root but dying, falling among thorns and weeds and choking, or bearing fruit many times over. What are we to do about the seed that doesn't take root? Are we to give up on so much potential? The author observes that so many broken people are searching for fulfillment but finding only emptiness. "So much potential is wasted because the soil of their hearts hasn't been tilled or prepared for planting," he writes. "While our bodies will one day return to the earth to provide nutrients to the soil, our lives, on this side of the grave, can provide what others need to grow." Join the author as he highlights why everyone is worth investing in and how to prepare the soil of the heart for a bountiful harvest.
