The Moral of the Story

Jesus was a master storyteller. He found a way to take objects, customs, and practices that people understood, and use them to illustrate the nature of God, salvation, and obedience. We live in an age dominated by stories. Even more than most, teenagers are captivated by stories. This five-week sermon series guide for students looks at some of the parables Jesus told about the kingdom of God as recorded in the book of Matthew. Each of these parables examines God’s desire for us to love him with our whole heart. “The Moral of the Story” is insightful, practical, and relevant for young people today.
