SUMMER GUEST SPEAKER SERIES | "Parable of the Sower"

This year at the church we have been moving our Faith Forward by exploring discipleship in the gospel of Matthew. Near the end of the book of Matthew, Jesus calls his disciples to give special consideration for those on the margins of society, what he calls "the least of these". In taking care of orphans, widows, prisoners, and the like, we have the privilege of serving Jesus, himself. This summer at PLCPC, while Pastor Karla is on Sabbatical, we have the unique opportunity to hear from some of our Christian sisters and brothers who are doing this type of frontline discipleship ministry. The speakers range from those doing ministry to the unhoused, to those releasing people in bondage from human trafficking, to those helping refugees on our own border. Hopefully, you will be inspired and encouraged to take your own step in deeper discipleship by hearing their stories. Wherever God calls, might we all have the courage to answer.

We are privileged to hear from author and speaker, Kevin Nye. Kevin is a writer and advocate working toward ending homelessness by engaging best practices. Kevin’s first book released in August of 2022 and is titled, "Grace Can Lead Us Home: A Christian Call to End Homelessness". Kevin currently lives with his wife and son in Minneapolis, MN, where he works as Housing Director at an organization addressing youth homelessness. This week, Kevin discusses the "Parable of the Soewer" and how the Sower throws good seeds to all kinds of soil, regardless of what may come of them. What can we learn from this act of grace in our interaction with the unhoused?
