<p>Billy Hanna asks us to consider how we truly hear God’s word, and whether our hearts are bearing lasting fruit through faith and obedience.</p><p><br></p><p>Billy explores Jesus’ parable of the sower by examining the barriers that keep God’s word from taking root in our lives, including hardened hearts, suffering, and worldly distractions. Through Luke 8:4-21, we are encouraged to reflect on the condition of our hearts, hold firmly to Christ, and patiently bear fruit as we follow Him. Billy points us to the cross as the ultimate reminder of Jesus’ love, suffering, and worthiness of our full devotion.</p><p><br></p><p>Recorded at the Hukanui Bible Church morning service on Sunday the 17th of May 2026 during the 10:00 am service.</p>
