I've been thinking about some ideas that may help students understand the Bible better. Up to 100 years ago we were agrarian based society. Our modern kids have very little understanding of an agrarian society and little understanding of the parables and Bible stories about agrarian society. With that thought in mind, I would like to combine video (if possible) and stills to illustrate and help our understanding of the parables. I would like to start with the parable of the sower. If our kids can understand the way seeds grow and by where the seeds fell and what happened to them in a real world environment I think that they will understand the parable better. There is a deeper level to the parable the kids today can't grasp, unless they live on a farm.
