The parking lot looks great and we are ready for lottie dottie everybody to come to worship, fellowship, and learn together as a church family.

We will be finishing off the 13th chapter in the Gospel of Matthew. In our text we will see lots of parables. Jesus will unpack some, but others He will not. What we will find is a varying interpretation of the parables, but we will be vigilant in using context, and previous symbolism to try to gain the clearest understanding of these parables.

After we have unpacked the parables, we will also see Jesus' rejection by the folks of his home town. Unfortunately for them, because of their unbelief, Jesus would not perform many miracles in Nazareth.
