A Story Jesus Told

The Sower

From the Gospel of Matthew

Scroll to begin
One — At Dawn

Before the sun was fully up, the farmer set out for the fields with his seed bag full of hope.

Two — The Scattering

A farmer went out to plant. He walked through his fields, scattering seeds everywhere.

Three — The Hard Path

Some seeds fell on the hard path. Birds swooped down and ate them up.

Four — Rocky Ground

Some seeds fell on rocky ground. They sprouted quickly, but the scorching sun withered them away.

Five — The Thorns

Some seeds fell among thorns. The prickly weeds grew up and choked the little plants.

Six — Good Soil

But some seeds fell on good soil! They grew into a beautiful golden wheat field.

Seven — Turning to Gold

Days turned to weeks. The wheat grew tall, then turned from green to gold, swaying gently in the warm wind.

Eight — The Harvest
100× harvest!

The farmer came at harvest with a huge smile. One hundred times what he planted!

A Small Question

Where would you want
the seeds to land?

And other seeds fell on good soil and produced a crop, a hundred times what was sown.

Matthew 13
A Flower Blooms

A flower bloomed.

You finished The Sower. Your garden has one more flower in it.
