Unraveling Jesus' Parables and the Journey of God's Kingdom
In this enlightening episode, hosts Matt and Tina Wilson dive deep into the parables of Jesus, especially the parable of the growing seed from Mark 4, to explore their meaning and application within a chronological Bible reading plan. They discuss the unfolding narrative of God's covenant from Abraham to Jesus, emphasizing the transition from a geopolitical to a spiritual kingdom. Through the progressive revelation of God's will from the Old Testament to the New Testament, they highlight key themes such as spiritual growth, discipleship, and the role of God's grace and the Holy Spirit. Additionally, they explore the origins and principles of the Restoration Movement, aiming to return to biblical church practices. Join us as we unpack these profound spiritual lessons and discover the divine orchestration leading to the establishment of God's eternal kingdom.
Don't forget to pick up Tina's book, 'Step into Scripture,' and follow along with the reading plan. Get the Book: https://a.co/d/iK7ZERp
