22. Lk 8: 4-15

Lk 8: 4-15: Luke wishes to impress the Christians that they must be fervent and ‘active’ hearers of the word (v. 8:8). So whatever worries, pleasures, discomforts that they may tend to strangle the growth of faith in the word, they should persevere with open and responsive minds and hearts. The parable of the sower is meant to elicits from the hearers to be active.
