About this episode

In this episode, Jessica White explores Jesus' teachings on God's truth and the growth of His kingdom through parables in the Gospel of Mark.

Scripture: Mark 4:21–34Series: Gospel of Mark, Part 14 In this episode, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark as Jesus teaches the crowds using parables. Last time, we learned how people respond differently to God’s Word in the Parable of the Sower. Today, Jesus builds on that teaching and helps us understand something new: not just how we respond, but what God is doing. Through the pictures of a lamp, a growing seed, and a tiny mustard seed, Jesus teaches us: God’s truth is like a light—it is meant to be seen, not hidden God is always at work, even when we cannot see it His kingdom may start small, but it grows strong and cannot be stopped ⁠🎨 DON'T miss Go Minno for faith filled shows you can trust. 📣 How Does My Child Get a Listener Shout-Out?
