Pastor Andy Clark shares a timely message birthed on a mountain trail—fresh from a season of remission and renewal. Walking through Jesus’ Parable of the Sower (Mark 4), he asks: What kind of heart is God’s Word falling on—hardened path, rocky ground, thorny soil, or good soil?

You’ll learn:
• Why acceptance precedes understanding—and obedience grows fruit
• How to endure inner conflict and external pressure without falling away
