Sow far, sow good?
Janet Scott reads from the gospel of Mark
‘And he says to them, Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?’ (Mark 4:13)
The parable of the sower is one of the few parables which appear in all three of the synoptic gospels. Only Mark, however, makes this comment about how essential it is to understand it.
