Matthew 13:23
But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
In other words, in order to be good ground, you not only have to hear and understand, you have to act on it and 'bring forth fruit'. If someone gives a talk on Sunday, unless you apply it, it is pointless. Reading thoughts by great philosophers is certainly nice, but not worth it until you apply it. Try doing this, being a low-maintainence, high-yield member of the church.
