Interpreting them can lead to a greater understanding about the message that Jesus was trying to bring into this world. Join us as we dig deep into the meaning of the parables of Jesus. 40:37 no Starting in chapter 4, Jesus would begin teaching in parables, often starting with the word "Listen". Some of these short simple stories held rich insight as to the nature and breath of the Kingdom of God. Others were meant for self reflection that would lead to repentance. Yet, Jesus purposely taught in ambiguous short stories to keep some people from understanding and repenting. If you think this seems counter intuitive, you should listen to this Podcast. We will wrestle with Jesus' motivation for teaching in Parables and we will draw deep insights from the lessons they hide.

In this podcast we attempt to show you how great he was and what we can learn from him. 50:42 no John the Baptist was a significant figure in the Bible and of his time. He serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testament. Like Elijah he is the messenger who prepares the way for the arrival of the Lord. He is even spoken about by ancient historians like Josephus. Yet this revolutionary gives us a valuable lesson in humility as the basis of Christian living and ministry. Much like the people of his time, however, we can look past him and not give him the importance he deserves. In this podcast we try to give him his proper significance, listen and we hope you enjoy.
