Sow a Seed Grow a Friend

The problems facing our youth today are not new. The temptations of young people today might come in better wrapped packages than they did a generation ago, but they can still be summed up as “the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life” resulting in • drug/alcohol abuse, • violence in school, • materialism, • obesity, • poverty, • teenage pregnancy, and • homelessness. The old trap the devil used has always been our “friend.” Adam was the first human to fall in this trap when his friend (wife) gave him a forbidden fruit to eat. Eve also fell in this trap by making the devil her friend and listened to him. They both died (spiritually). Hanging around a wrong friend is not only dangerous but also deadly. For the first time in two thousand years, the secret code has been revealed. God’s solution to the youthful and social problems in our generation and the generations to come is revealed. Combining practical biblical principles with powerful, modern stories, Sow a Seed Grow a Friend is your personal guide to escape the deadly impact of wrong friendship. Benjamin Haruna tells you how to identify these friends in your life through the relationships between the • seed and wayside ground, • seed and rocky ground, • seed and thorny ground, and • seed and good ground.
