Parables are Complicated Enough - Matthew 25 - Notes from the Cutting Room Floor

About this episode

Pastors Alex and Chris discuss the simplicity of parables and their practical applications in understanding life and the kingdom of God.

Pastors Alex and Chris urge people to not make the parables more complicated than they are. Jesus is a master teacher who does a terrific job guiding people to think about life and the kingdom of God in practical and helpful ways. Then we get involved and try to make them more (or less) than they are supposed to be. Key thought from this episode : See the point or purpose of the parable and live that out. We look forward to hearing from you for future topics we might address! Email chris.stukenberg@parkhillsefc.org or check out parkhillschurch.com for more info.
