The Parable of the Sower

Elder Dalln H. Oaks

Reform our

personal lives

The seed…the soil

Do we receive and

follow the word?

Fell by the wayside

a heart hardened

or unprepared

Mark 4:4

Fell on stony ground

Received with gladness,

with affliction…offended

Mark 4: 16-17

…

We can develop

a stony heart

without spiritual

food…Mark 4:16-17

Fell among thorns

They hear the word

and the cares of the

world choke the word

Mark 4:18-19

Beguiled

Mark 8:14

When attitudes or priorities

are fixed on acquisition

Fell into good ground

and brought forth fruit

Honest, good heart,

hear, keep, patient

Luke 8:15

Change of Heart…firmly rooted
