FROM HEARING TO HARVEST
Cultivating a Heart for Transformation
A Free 6-Week Course | Will Bantom Global Ministries
THE QUESTION YOU'VE BEEN ASKING
You hear God's Word every Sunday. You attend Bible studies. You read devotionals. You've filled notebooks with sermon notes.
So why isn't your life changing?
Why do you still battle the same anger, lust, pride, fear, and patterns year after year? Why does biblical knowledge keep accumulating while your character stays the same? If you've ever wondered why you're not experiencing the transformation you expected, this course gives you the biblical answer—and shows you exactly how to change.
THE ANSWER
Jesus addressed this exact frustration in the Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13). His answer might surprise you:
The problem isn't with God's Word. The problem is with the condition of your heart when that Word is planted.
The seed is always powerful. What varies is the soil—the receptiveness of your heart and your willingness to cultivate what's been planted.
This 6-week course will help you:
Diagnose which of the five heart conditions describes you
Identify what's preventing your spiritual growth
Learn the six practices that produce transformation
Create your personalized 30-day cultivation plan
You'll stop being a consumer of God's Word and become a cultivator.

Week 1: The Problem
Understand why you're not changing despite hearing God's Word regularly. Identify your accountability partner and commit to the cultivation journey.
Week 2: The Hard Heart & Shallow Heart
Diagnose whether you're spiritually calloused (hard heart) or uncommitted (shallow heart). Learn to break up hard ground and develop spiritual depth.
Week 3: The Divided Heart & Lazy Heart
Identify the thorns (competing priorities) choking your growth. Discover where you have capacity but lack consistency. Remove what's stealing your spiritual vitality.
Week 4: The Good Heart

THE TRANSFORMATION YOU CAN EXPECT
If you complete this course and work your cultivation plan consistently, here's what you can realistically expect over the next 30-90 days:
Character: Visible growth in Christ-likeness, breaking of long-standing patterns, fruit of the Spirit emerging in measurable ways
Behavior: Consistent daily time with God, obedience in areas where you've resisted, sacrifice of comforts, competing with your relationship with God
Relationships: Improved connections as your character changes, decreased conflict, healthier boundaries, deeper fellowship
Spiritual Life: Movement from consumer to cultivator, genuine hunger for God, confidence in His Word's power, perseverance through difficulty
Mindset: Understanding that transformation requires work, taking responsibility for cultivating your heart, patience with growth, and trust in God's timing

45-60 minutes per week for course content
10-30 minutes daily for cultivation practices
Weekly accountability check-ins
Total: 20-30 hours over 6 weeks
What It Will Cost:

What You'll Need:
A Bible and journal

WHY I WROTE THIS COURSE
For years, I have been secretly frustrated. I was reading my Bible daily. Listening to sermons. Attending Bible studies and even getting a degree in theology. My biblical knowledge was growing constantly. But my life was not changing at the same rate. The same gap between what I knew and how I lived was not closing at the rate it should. I began to wonder: Why isn't the amount of Word I'm consuming producing the change I'm expecting? Then God brought me back to the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13, and I finally understood.
The seed was never the problem. I was.
Not because I was a bad person, but because I'd become more of a consumer than a cultivator of God’s Word. I was accumulating knowledge without working it into my life. I was hearing without doing the hard work of cultivation. When I understood this—and learned what cultivation actually looks like—everything changed.
That's why I created this course, because I know I'm not the only one who's been frustrated by the gap between their knowledge and their life.
This course is helping me, and I believe it will change your life too.
