Parables of the Kingdom - Mark 4

When Jesus taught people, he most often used stories...images drawn from everyday life. Jesus knew that stories have a way of getting planted in our mind and growing subversively.
Jesus compared the Kingdom of God to ordinary, everyday things like a farmer planting wheat or a gardener growing a mustard bush from a seed. This sermon unpacks the gospel through two of Jesus' parables in Mark 4. The parables show that the Kingdom of God does its mysterious, transforming work in and through the ordinary, everyday stuff of our lives.
The sermon can be used with the Prezi zooming visuals found at this link.
It was preached at Lakeside College on Sunday 14th June 2015.
