Summer Series at First Baptist:
The parables of Jesus from the Gospel According to Matthew.
Jesus engaged listeners with his parables. They weren’t straightforward and required reflection. Even after hearing the same story time after time, there seems to be still more. Jesus also used them to present people with a choice. Would they hear and understand? Would they listen?
This week, we are reflecting on the parable of the mustard seed and the parable of the leaven. Jesus compares the kingdom of God to small things that, over time, grow into something much bigger.
