Jesus' Parables: The Mustard Seed
Sunday, June 10, 2018
Our Scripture focus was on Mark 4:30-32.
We took a look at Jesus' Parables: The Mustard Seed
Our takeaways were to:
- Read Psalm 111, Matthew 13 and Mark 4.
- CONNECT with someone in whom you planted a seed.
- DISCOVER how you can plant seeds in others.
- SERVE by signing up for C3, Flea Market or VBS.
- Pray for the Kingdom of God to be fruitful.
