UCT S3E1: The Kingdom of Heaven is Like...‪?‬ The Uncommon Truth

    • Christianity

The parables of Jesus are some of the most memorable and often-quoted passages of His teachings. It was very common for Jesus to express some of the most critical concepts using simple stories and examples. But do we always get the point?
This week’s episode kicks off Season Three, in which we dive a little deeper into some of Jesus’ most memorable, and sometimes confusing, parables. The one thing all these stories have in common is the phrase, “The kingdom of God is like…” The implication is clear: if Jesus wants us tell us about His kingdom, shouldn’t we pay attention? 
Today, Steve & Vicki tackle a couple of smaller parables from Matthew 13. What’s the significance of the kingdom being like, “Buried treasure,” or “a merchant in search of fine pearls?”
