Sermon Discussion Questions

  1. What are the 4 kinds of soil mentioned in Mark 4:13-20? What is ‘good soil’? What does it mean to have our lives be classified as a ‘good soil’? What characteristics will our lives exhibit for others to judge that we are ‘good soil’?
  2. It is important to continue to cultivate the Word in our lives. How can we build up and show our faith by our works, and not let it become a ‘dead faith’? What are the three ways we can release our faith? Share some real life situations you can practice this in.
  3. The Christian faith is built upon the promises of God. How do we know we can trust His promises? How should we respond as a result of the trustworthiness of God? How does it empower our prayers?
  4. While we are to have boldness in proclaiming our faith in prayer, it is not an “I want it, I claim it” but to agree with God and what He already says about us and our situation today. How does meditating on His Word allow us to abide in Him and to remain aligned with His will to be ‘good soil’ and fruitful?
