Title: Seeds
Date: May 5, 2019
Synopsis: Pastor Nick continues our series on Kingdom by engaging the historical side of the Brethren in Christ denomination and what it has meant for Anabaptist’s to be “Kingdom people.” On this morning we engage the Parable of the Sower and the Parable of the Seed and really dig into the idea of good soil. These parables are meant to be a mirror for our lives and not a weapon for others.
