You are listening to:6/22/25 10am – “Ears to Hear: Why Jesus Told Stories”

Jesus didn’t just teach with facts—He told stories. But these weren’t just moral tales; they were parables—a placing of one thing beside another. A parable lays a Kingdom reality next to an everyday moment, inviting listeners to compare, wrestle, and respond. In this opening message, we’ll explore why Jesus spoke in parables and what they reveal about the nature of His Kingdom.
Using the Parable of the Sower, we’ll see how Jesus invites us not only to listen, but to lean in—to join the disciples in deeper dialogue and discover truth in the context of community.
