Mark 4:20... 1-19 for context
At least once every year I tell my guys that the Bible isn't just two-dimensional text on a page, but that it is three dimensional - meaning I can read the text, you can read it, the neighbors can read it and we can all come out with different lessons to learn from it. Last year I had the privilege of leading The Forge, one of OSUXA's best guys bible study groups. Last semester we went over the parables of Christ, and probably the most memorable of them to me was the Parable of the Sower. We learned quite a bit from it then, but, I just came across another point. Till now I accepted that the seed and the Word were the same thing, and just left it there. However, this is calling for the Word to multiply. To grow from just a kernel into fruit that can do the same thing. God didn't sow the word just out in some random patch to look nice. No, the Word sown in you is called to grow into a full head of grain that can be planted in other patches of dirt. On top of that you were not designed to produce a kernel, but a full head so that you can spread the word 30, 60, or even a 100 times more! Daunting task, maybe, but so was walking when all you could do was crawl.
