Jeremy Johnson - I Love My Church - Guard Your Heart

On this week's podcast, we continue on with the incredible new series, I Love My Church. Pastor Jeremy Johnson of Fearless LA demonstrates the importance of sowing seeds on good soil to produce fruit that remains.

Through scripture we see that God does everything in our lives through the sowing of seeds. The soil unlocks the seed in our lives, however, if there are weeds in the soil, those will grow too.

We see that good soil unlocks true potential in the seeds that we sow. What we reap depends on our hearts position.

When we want fruit to remain in our lives, the only way to keep it is to create deep roots. The word says, "When we have a ready heart, the insights and understandings flow freely. But if there is no readiness, any trace of receptivity soon disappears." - Matthew 13:12 MSG

Pastor Jeremy teaches us that magnified and multiplied blessing is in the seed of the fruits in our lives. Fruit is for the present, seed is for sowing. We are encouraged through this podcast to bring our soil out of a temporary pot and get planted where we can grow and create deep roots in faith, family, and community.
