Storyteller #3 - The Parable of the Lamp

This is important stuff. Jesus is pulling his disciples aside to teach them and to give them insight into what they will do with him and with his Word. He wants the same to you. Jesus is the Sower who casts his seed recklessly into your ears so that you might here and believe. This is important stuff. What are you going to do with it? That’s what Jesus wants you to think about next. Will you put it under a bowl and harden yourself to it so that it doesn’t enlighten you or anyone else? Will you be stingy with it? What will you do with Jesus and his Word? We consider the next little parables in Mark 4, Jesus encourages us: “Consider carefully how you hear” (Mark 4:24). We’re looking at Mark 4:21-25.
