What happensPermalink
Jesus teaches about faith and hearing in parables: the sower, the lamp under the basket, the growing seed, and the mustard seed. He calms a storm on the sea.
Why it mattersPermalink
Jesus draws distinctions between those who listen and understand and those who do not. Those who hear and obey will enter the growing Kingdom of God.
Key versePermalink
“To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables.”
