Jesus’ Ministry and the Help of Women Some time afterward he went on through towns and villages, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The twelve were with him,
and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and disabilities: Mary(called Magdalene), from whom seven demons had gone out,

The Parable of the Sower While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from one town after another, he spoke to them in a parable:
“A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell along the path and was trampled on, and the wild birds devoured it.
Other seed fell on rock, and when it came up, it withered because it had no moisture.
Other seed fell among the thorns, and they grew up with it and choked it.
