Jesus often used stories & analogies to drive home a point, moral, or lesson. These stories often included unscrupulous characters that actually display some positive virtue or ethic that the listeners could learn from. These stories/analogies Jesus told are called parables.
Listen in as we work through some of Jesus' parables...We will work through 7 parables and learn the lessons Jesus taught working our way from large & important concepts down to the details of our lives.
This week, we begin with a HUGE & CRITICAL realization...a critical first step (& an "always" step we need to continually remember!) God's Kingdom is greater than anything and everything else we could even imagine. God's Kingdom is the "Pearl of Great Price" or the "Priceless Treasure". If we truly realized the value of God's Kingdom, we would surrender everything for it because it is worth more than anything & everything.
