What Kind of Soil? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
S1E27 — What Kind of Soil? Jesus’ Parable of the Sower is familiar, but it asks a question that is easy to avoid: what is God’s Word actually producing in you? In this episode of The Applied Word , we look at Matthew 13:1–23, Mark 4:1–20, and Luke 8:4–15 to compare all three Gospel accounts of the parable. The seed is the same in every case. What changes is the soil. Some hearts are hard. Some respond quickly but have no root. Some allow worry, wealth, pleasure, and distraction to choke out the

S1E26 – Pressed, Not Crushed Monday, September 7, 2026 Suffering can leave you with questions. Faith does not require you to pretend you have all the answers. In 2 Corinthians 4:8, Paul gives us one of the most honest descriptions of Christian suffering in Scripture: “hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair.” Paul does not deny the pressure.

S1E25 – Win Your Brother Monday, August 31, 2026 Conflict is easy. Reconciliation takes strength.

S1E24 — Brace Yourself Like a Man Job 40:7 BSB What do you do when God doesn’t give you the explanation you want? In this episode of The Applied Word, Justin McFadden walks through Job 40:7 and the moment God answers Job—not by explaining every reason behind his suffering, but by reminding him who is truly in control. Job’s story forces us to deal with a hard truth: sometimes we may never know why God allows certain things into our lives. That does not mean God is absent, careless, or uncertain.

S1E23 — The Beauty That Lasts Proverbs 31:30 | Monday, August 17th, 2026 What makes a woman truly beautiful—and have we trained ourselves to recognize it? Charm may catch a man’s attention, and physical beauty may draw him toward a woman, but neither one can reveal the condition of her heart or carry the weight of a covenant and a lifetime. In this episode of The Applied Word, Justin walks through Proverbs 31:30 and the qualities that define a genuinely godly woman. Proverbs 31 is not an impossi
