Parable of the Sower

Matthew 13

A visual depiction of a man scattering seeds in a rocky terrain with dry soil, illustrating the parable of seeds on rocky places.

his parable is full of truth for all of us. Jesus is a generous sower sowing seeds of truth and love everywhere. But not all the seeds fall on good soil. How is the soil of your heart? Are you ready to listen and take in the message? During this presentation we will learn about seeds, act out the parable, color, sing, and plant seeds in soft soil.

Our youth group enjoyed putting on a fun skit based on this story. It was written by Julianne Bruce for GROUP Funtastic Skits. Since then, I haven’t found it online. But maybe you can.

Parable of Wise and Foolish Builders

Matthew 7:24-28

Illustration depicting two houses, one built on rock and the other on sand, symbolizing the biblical parable from Matthew 7:24-28.

In Matthew 7:24-27 and Luke 6:46-49 Jesus tells a parable of a wise and foolish builder. Those who not only listen, but also do what God says are like the wise man builds his house on a rock. Our rock is Jesus. His words are true and are a firm foundation. He is a strong refuge. In this presentation we also learn about the Golden Rule and the importance of loving God and, like he does, love everyone. Activities include acting out the story of the wise and foolish builders using flour, water, and a little house. The house falls, but we use the water and flour to build a firm rock and foundation for another house.
