The Mysteries of the Kingdom of God (Part 1) | Matthew 13:1-23 | Pastor Rick Brown

What is a Parable? Parables were Jesus' number one teaching tool. In this episode, Rick kicks off a two-part series that will help you understand parables and apply them to your life! Let's open the Bible to Matthew 13:1-23 to dive into the eight remarkable parables. Don't miss this opportunity to listen in, friends. I know you'll be encouraged.

Matthew 13:10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” 11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
