Gennaris Family: Compelled Ones
Called to Africa to make disciples and to show God's love to their neighbors. The Gennaris are missionaries to Mozambique in partnership with YWAM. Ian and Carla have 3 sons and are currently working with the Yawo people, who have almost no gospel witness. After arriving in 2015, they spent 2 years showing the love of Christ in physical ways, particularly Carla, who is a highly trained nurse. The first converts were discipled, those people have shared the gospel with and discipled others. Most of these people cannot read, so 1,100 audio Bibles were purchased, one for each household. After revisiting these groups there is now a need for an additional 3,000 Bibles. They are opening a clinic this year, in addition to the other ways they minister.

Sow What?
Mark 4:1-20
On the clock tower of my alma mater is an Art Deco bas-relief sculpture titled The Sower. The inscription beneath it is from Galatians 6:7, “Whatsoever a man soweth.” Michigan State University remains a leader in agricultural research, but despite many improvements in farming techniques and crop production, this fact remains: Seeds of corn will not produce a crop of beans.
Jesus used many farming metaphors to explain the kingdom of God. In the parable of the sower (Mark 4), He compared the Word of God to seeds sown in different types of soil. As the parable indicates, the sower sows indiscriminately, knowing that some seed will fall in places where it will not grow.
Like Jesus, we are to sow good seed in all places at all times. God is responsible for where it lands and how it grows. The important thing is that we sow. God does not want us to reap destruction, so He wants us to sow what is good and right (Prov. 11:18). The apostle Paul elaborated on the metaphor when he warned believers not to sow seeds of corruption. Instead, we are to sow seeds that will reap eternal life (Gal. 6:8).
The answer to the question, “Sow what?” is “Sow what you want to reap.” To reap a good harvest in your life, start sowing seeds of goodness.
