Sowing with Intent

Sowing with Intent
offers a fresh look at Jesus's Parable of the Sower by demonstrating that the
parable (a) stands above other parables, (b) represents Jesus's own approach to
field ministry, (c) implicitly invites all obedient disciples to adopt Jesus's
ministry approach, and (d) guides disciples to discover catalysts who ignite
harvest movements.


Jesus's original intent for telling the Parable of the Sower was likely lost in
the second century and remained lost until the end of the nineteenth century
when scholars declared the original meaning can be known today. Using
hermeneutical principles, Sowing with Intent attempts to provide churches and
missionaries with Jesus's original intent for telling the Parable of the Sower
and how to apply it in today's context.


“In Kevin Greeson’s masterful Sowing with Intent, the author takes on his
personal journey to understand the missional strategy of Jesus. Greeson’s book
achieves a fusion of ideas between two worlds, the academic and the missionary
practitioner world. Anyone intent on fulfilling the Great Commission through
Jesus’s own Great Plan must read this book!”


David Garrison, PhD, Missionary author


“Kevin Greeson’s Sowing with Intent bridges the gap on the interpretation of
Jesus’s Parable of the Sower. This parable is the pinnacle of Jesus’s teaching
on the work of evangelism, follow-up, and discipleship. I highly recommend this
book to all Christians truly intent on fulfilling Christ’s Great Commission.”
