Fellowship Bible Church, Tacoma - Weekly Sermon Fellowship Bible Church

If you spend much time getting to know the teachings of Jesus, you will find there are times he asks you to do things you don't want to do. Like a fork in the road, you'll have to ask: will I listen to Jesus or not? Luke 8:16-21 is intended to prepare us to listen to Jesus and obey. We'll note four different questions we can ask ourselves to help us make the right decision at the fork in the road, and thereby experience the joy in Jesus for those who hear his voice and obey.

What's going on with the "parable of the soils?" In this sermon, Bruce explains how Jesus prepares us for varied responses to the gospel - and resets our expectations for what Christian faithfulness and Christian fruitfulness might look like in an increasingly hostile culture.
