PARABLE OF THE SOWER
Matthew 13:1–23; Luke 8:4–15
Key Doctrines, Principles & Concepts
- Unless we strive to deepen and nourish our testimonies, we may lack the strength necessary to endure tribulations, persecutions, and temptations (see Matthew 13:20–21; Luke 8:13).
- The cares of the world can distract us from focusing on the Lord and choke our faith and testimony (see Matthew 13:22).
- As we open our hearts to the word of God and receive it, we will become converted to the Savior and bring forth good works (see Matthew 13:23).

Parable of the Sower Lesson
Assign each child to read about one of four types of soil in Matthew 13:4–8. Let the younger kids color each part of the "Plant in Good Soil" picture as you read the parable of the sower. Ask how our hearts can be like the different types of soil? (see Matthew 13:19–23). Let older kids trace the scripture (Matthew 13:9) and match the parable segment with the applicable picture and the interpretation. (Note: Parable matching game uses the parable account from Luke 8:4-15). How can we make our hearts like the “good ground” Jesus described? (Matthew 13:8)
Parable Activity Pages: Scripture Trace, Matching, Coloring
Scripture Trace: Trace and color Matthew 13:9 activity page
Parable Story Matching: Color and cut out the pieces along the dotted lines. Turn all the pieces upside down. The first player turns over three pieces, trying to match the parable segment with the applicable picture and the interpretation. If the player matches all three, he/she keeps those pieces and gets another turn. If the cards don’t match, they are turned back over and it is the next player’s turn. The game ends when all the cards have been matched.
