• Concept: An enthusiastic but inexperienced man buys a farm and looks to plant a crop. After repeated failures sowing his seeds on unprepared or inappropriate soil, he meets the man in the Mexican hat. This man (a metaphor for Jesus) teaches him to plow and prepare the soil before casting his seeds. Based on Jesus’ Parable of the Sower, this story reminds us to work the soil of the heart in which we hope to plant the truth of the gospel.
