Last week when we concluded the Galatians series, we paid special attention to Paul's exhortation: "Do not grow weary of doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we don't give up." Similarly, Jesus also used the analogy of a harvest to describe the results of God's teaching working in our lives. In his "Parable of the Four Soils," he warns us that there are things that can harm or prevent that "harvest." This Sunday we identified what those things are, and how to avoid them.
