Parables
Jesus often spoke in ways that purposefully confounded crowds and left some people walking away confused. Jesus spoke in riddles and stories, and in these teachings, there was always a twist. A reversal. In other words, something that makes us want to lean in desiring to know more, or to get up and walk away. Most of all, Jesus’ parables are a window… a window into the upside-down, paradoxical kingdom of God.
Join us this summer as we explore Jesus’ brilliant stories and as we seek out His kingdom revealed to us in their midst

Parables: The Tower and the King - 08
Jesus can set you free from the tyranny of trying to please others. And the tyranny of trying to please yourself. Following Him will cost you. But not following Him costs us so much more. And you’ll end up fighting a war you cannot win. With a God who loves you, and longs for you to surrender. Unconditional surrender. But who welcomes us in, not as slaves or even subjects. But as daughters and sons. The God who made me. Who died for me. Who rose victoriously for me. Who gives me His Spirit to actually be able to live this out. And forgiveness when I fail. Hope that one day all things will be made new. Church, the cost is high. But is it?

Jesus’s teachings weren’t always straightforward. In fact, even as someone widely known as the greatest teacher and communicator the world has ever seen, Jesus often spoke in ways that purposefully confounded crowds and left some people walking away confused.

Jesus spoke in riddles and stories, and in these teachings, there was always a twist. A reversal. In other words, something that makes us want to lean in desiring to know more, or to get up and walk away. Most of all, Jesus’ parables are a window... a window into the upside-down, paradoxical kingdom of God. Join us this summer as we explore Jesus’ brilliant stories and as we seek out His kingdom revealed to us in their midst.

Conversation Starters
Conversation Starters are one way we at Christ Community seek to dig deeper into the current sermon and biblical text. They are available during community group sessions.
