Chapter 30 Among the Thorns

Ouch—this one hits deep. When we’re trying to grow in our faith, sometimes we find thorns in the soil. And when we go to pull them out, they poke back. In this chapter, Ced breaks down the thorny ground from the parable of the sower—how it represents the cares of life, the deceit of riches, and the vices that choke our growth. These thorns may not look dangerous at first, but they can hold us back from fully becoming who God called us to be. Let’s talk about how to identify them—and uproot them.
