Show Notes
In this episode of The Semi-Seminarian Podcast, Pastor Jim takes you to the lakeshore where Jesus sat in a boat and told the Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:1–23). On the surface, it’s a simple farming story—but to the first-century crowd, it sounded like a scandal. No farmer worth his salt wastes seed on rocks, weeds, and beaten-down paths. Yet that’s exactly how Jesus describes the kingdom of God.
