In Part 2 of our GO Grow series, we unpacked the Parable of the Sower from Matthew 13 and explored God’s heart for reaching those who are far from Him. Jesus shows us that the condition of the soil matters—some seed falls on rocky or thorny ground, but some lands on good soil and produces a great harvest.

Pastor Doug reminded us that:

People who are far from God are closer than we think and more open than we realize.

God often sends us to unlikely people in unlikely places.

The mission to reach the lost always involves people—God’s plan to reach the lost is YOU.

The message highlighted four groups God refuses to give up on:

Nineveh – The people we’re tempted to judge.

The Ethiopian Eunuch – The one no one else sees.

Cornelius – The one from the “wrong” culture.

The Woman at the Well – The person everyone else avoids.

The call to action is clear: take the Gospel beyond the walls of the church, sow generously, and trust God to bring the growth.
