Episode 203 – Biblical Images of God Pt 2: Faithful Farmer

A lot of us grow up with distorted ideas about who God is, and part of following Jesus is unlearning those false images and discovering the truth. In this episode, we’re diving into the beautiful picture of God as a Faithful Farmer—someone who plants, nurtures, and invests deeply in what He’s growing. This image shows us just how patient and committed God is, working tirelessly to see His creation—and you—flourish. As people created in His image, we’re invited to reflect His heart by caring for the world and those around us with the same kind of love and intention. This teaching will remind you of God’s relentless care for you and inspire you to do the same for others!
