The Parable of the Soils – Mark’s Perspective - Part 5
Are you obsessed with money, wealth, and possessions? Do these things control your life? In the Parable of the Soils, Jesus describes the thorny ground—the heart so choked by riches and the deceitfulness of wealth that the Word becomes unfruitful. This person hears the gospel but allows the worries of this life and the lure of possessions to strangle the truth before it can take root. The problem isn't the message we proclaim but the unbelieving heart that refuses to bow to Christ.
