Spoken on January 17th by Pastor Chang
Mark 4:3-5
Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow.

If you've been having problems listening to the sermon straight off the website try downloading it and listening to the mp3 on your computer.
But you should be able to listen to it on this website by:
- pressing play
- wait for the mp3 to show the amount of time 50:38 (yes, it's a 50 minute sermon)
- press pause and play again
Mark 4:1
The Parable of the Sower
Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water's edge.

Sorry for the late post!
I think by now if you're someone who's been following the Sunday Sermons you've come to expect these mp3s to be a few days late. I apologize for that because I know that a lot of you are away from Toronto or can't make it to church week-to-week to hear Chang's sermons in person.
I hope you all had a good new years.
I also hope that you're transition back in to your daily lives was smooth.
And yes, now we're a week in to 2010 - maybe that feeling of excitement from the new year has settled in and passed on and the new year won't really be a big thing anymore. The party's over and it's back to real life.
But there's still a lot to consider outside of our unfulfilled desires and wants.
What about the desires of God's heart?
Is 2010 the year when we start taking our minds off of ourselves and looking at the bigger picture - the picture where God is at the centre of it all?
When do we start allowing God to work in our lives?
How do we let God grow in our lives?
I don't usually write anything to accompany the Sunday Sermons that get posted here.
I wanted to say something this time because if 2010 was meant to be a year for change, then I encourage all of you to really listen to this sermon and...that's because Chang preaching God's word should encourage you better than my words.
At least for me, it has served to be a helpful reminder to take on a new attitude towards God.
I hope and pray it's the same for you.
Let's continue to start building God's kingdom instead of our own personal ones.
