Sermon by elder Billy Dalton
This Sunday, in Mark 4:1-20, Jesus teaches the Parable of the Soils and challenges us with a profound question: “How are you hearing?” Since the fall of creation into sin, God promised a Savior—a seed of the woman—who would crush the serpent's head, deliver humanity from sin's corruption, and establish an everlasting kingdom. In Jesus of Nazareth, that promise is fulfilled. He proclaimed, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe the good news” (Mark 1:15). Through miracles such as healing the sick and forgiving sins, He demonstrated His authority as the long-awaited Messiah. Yet, as we've seen in Mark's Gospel, people responded to Jesus in unexpected ways. Crowds pursued His miracles but overlooked His kingdom. Religious leaders, who were most familiar with the Scriptures, rejected Him. Even His family believed He had lost His mind. How could so many hear the same teachings, witness the same wonders, and respond so differently? In Mark 4, Jesus addresses this through the Parable of the Soils. He describes four types of hearers: the hardened heart, the shallow heart, the strangled heart, and the receptive heart. Each hears the word of the kingdom, but only one bears fruit. Jesus emphasizes hearing—a term mentioned thirteen times in this chapter—not merely as listening, but as accepting and obeying His message. He warns, “Take care how you hear” (v. 24), because our response reveals whether we truly follow Him or simply agree with Him. Jesus' parables judge the hearer, not the other way around. They call us to examine our lives: Are we bearing fruit for His kingdom, or are we distracted, indifferent, or unchanged? The difference, as Jesus says, has an eternal cost. 1. "Hear" The Parable of the Soils (Mark 4:1-9) 2. "Hear" The Parable's Purpose (v. 10-13) 3. Hearing is a Matter of the Heart (v. 14-20)
In Matthew 13:1-23 Jesus explains, in a parable, why there are such different responses to the Word. May we be those with ears to hear.

Learn about the causes of debris flows and proactive measures to prevent them in this geotechnical engineering podcast episode. From climate change to geological factors, we'll discuss the science behind debris flows and how to mitigate their impact on communities. Tune in to learn more about this important geohazard and how geotechnical engineers work to keep us safe. In this episode of The Ground Investigation Podcast, Michael Taylor interviews Joseph McElhany to discuss the challenges and advancements in geotechnical engineering, particularly in the context of post-wildfire debris flows and the importance of proactive measures in mitigating geohazards. They explore misconceptions about debris flows, the role of soil investigations in project budgeting, and the need for innovative materials and methods to adapt to changing environmental conditions. In this conversation, Joseph McElhany discusses various aspects of geotechnical engineering, focusing on innovations in corrosion protection, the need for more research in geo hazards, and the importance of learning from failures in projects. He emphasizes the significance of communication among engineers and the potential role of AI in predicting geo hazards. The discussion also highlights common mistakes in geotechnical design and the necessity for engineers to understand geology better. Key Topics Discussed ✅Post-wildfire debris flows are becoming more common and require proactive mitigation. ✅Many people underestimate the likelihood and impact of debris flows after wildfires. ✅California has teams of engineers and geologists assessing post-wildfire risks. ✅Risk assessment prioritizes human life and critical infrastructure in debris flow mitigation. ✅Innovative monitoring systems can enhance early warning for debris flows. ✅Soil investigations are crucial to avoid unexpected project costs. ✅Contractors are increasingly recognizing the importance of ground investigations. ✅Historical data on past debris flows can inform current construction practices. ✅Designing infrastructure for extreme weather is becoming a priority. ✅Corrosion resistance in materials is essential for longevity in harsh environments. Stainless steel is costly but effective for corrosion protection. ✅New designs for debris flow barriers can reduce environmental impact. ✅There is a lack of research on geo hazards compared to earthquake engineering. ✅Publications and presentations are crucial for raising awareness in the field. ✅AI could enhance data awareness and monitoring in geo hazards. ✅Learning about geology is essential for civil and geotechnical engineers. ✅Failures in projects can lead to significant improvements in design. ✅Peer reviews can help validate engineering designs and decisions. ✅Understanding the relationship between drillers and engineers is vital for project success. Memorable Quotes from Joseph McElhany
Gardeners complain about clay soils, but Benjamin Vogt, a leading designer of natural gardens and landscapes notes that they offer many advantages for the ecologically based gardener
This week we wrap up our series called Rooted by talking about the parable of the sower in Mark 4. Jesus shows us that the only thing we can control about our fruitfulness is the condition of our hearts. We want to be a people who give God the best of our attention and affection, because when we do, we can reap a harvest “30, 60, even a hundred times what was sown.”
Are we like the sower or are we the soil? We answer this question and more on this week's podcast discussing Matthew 13:1-23.
Researchers at University of Galway have created a new approach to finding peat soil, giving insight to where carbon is stored in the ground. Through a combination of state-of-the-art analytical techniques and data from the Geological Survey Ireland nationwide Tellus aerial survey, the research team has provided a revised picture of where peat soils are present across 80 % of Ireland, based on environmental gamma radiation measurements. The findings also offer huge potential to influence policy around land use and interventions to mitigate against greenhouse gas emissions. The study was led by Dr Eve Daly and Dr Dave O'Leary from the Hydrogeophysics and Remote Sensing research group at University of Galway in collaboration with Trinity College Dublin, Teagasc and Geological Survey Ireland. Lead author, Dr Dave O'Leary, PhD researcher, School of Natural Sciences, University of Galway, said: "Gamma rays are invisible, high-energy photons, like light, that are released during natural radioactive decay of materials in rocks and soils. Peat soils have a unique ability to block this type of naturally occurring radiation, drastically reducing the number of gamma rays detected by the sensor mounted on the Tellus aircraft when flying over peat soils." The research team focused on this trait of peat soils to train a machine learning algorithm to identify and provide confidence of similar soils occurring in the top 60 cm of the land where the Tellus survey has been flown to date. While peat depth cannot be directly measured this new analysis gave insights into the extent of peat soil and, importantly, identified the areas where soil changes from peat to mineral, which are typically hidden under things like forests and grasslands. Using this new research approach, the area of soil considered "peaty" within the Tellus geophysical survey potentially increased from 24 % to 30 %. The findings have been published in the leading soil science journal Geoderma. Soils are a mixture of broken bits of rock, water, and air. Peat soils are distinct from mineral soils as they are formed from decaying plant material, mixed with water and air, and contain a very high amount of carbon. When waterlogged, this carbon is stored in the soils and their value has been increasingly recognised in recent years. When water is removed, for example via drainage, peat soils then emit carbon dioxide as the decay process restarts. Dr O'Leary added: "In general, people are relatively familiar or have heard of radon, but what they might not know is that this is a by-product of naturally occurring uranium in the rocks below our feet, which also emits gamma radiation. There are several sources of this natural radiation in the environment and our study uses the unique relationship between this radiation and peat soils to identify where peat is likely to be present. "The Tellus survey has provided consistent coverage and measurements across about 80 % of the country at present. As this is a direct measurement from the soil, it allows us to create maps with boundaries showing realistic change from peat to mineral soils, regardless of what is covering the ground, be it trees or grass. "Few countries have invested in such an incredible dataset, which puts Ireland at the forefront of peatland mapping research. Importantly, the data is free to use. We hope that our research will encourage and incentivise other countries to invest in such surveys to meet their peatland mapping needs." Dr Eve Daly, Geophysicist and lecturer in Earth & Ocean Sciences, School of Natural Sciences, University of Galway, said: "This study gives decision makers and regulators more accurate spatial data on the extent of peat soil in Ireland and will assist in highlighting specific areas that are suitable, or not, for interventions to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions." The study was funded by Geological Survey Ireland, a division of the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications. The full...
For Lent, we're starting a new series in the parables - curious stories intended to slow us down, make us think, and invite us to change. And in this first parable about the parables, we see that our response to Jesus reveals something important about our hearts. Join us as we look at "The Sower and the Soils" from Matthew 18:1-23.

Mark 4 and the Parable of the Soils. Maybe we've heard this story so many times that we only catch part of the warning. What if the point isn't just about being a plant but about being fruitful? And what if the weeds that choke don't kill us, but simply make us unfruitful... which misses a massive point of life in the kingdom of God.

The Prime Minister has been with EU Leaders in Brussels intending to 're-set' the UK's position with the EU. The Government is seeking a veterinary agreement with the EU to free up trade in food and animal products - something some farmers and food businesses have been calling for.We visit the author of the Rock Review into Tenant Farming - Baroness Kate Rock is herself a tenant, farming 450 hectares of arable and a small beef herd with her father in Dorset.And under the new system of farm payments in England, farmers can be paid for improving their soils. But how to do it depends on local geology. We visit a farm in the Brecklands on the Norfolk/Suffolk border, where growing crops in the sandy, stony soils can be difficult at the best of times.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons
