Eternal Life
Matthew 19:30-20:16 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)

FORGIVEN TO FORGIVE
Matthew 18:21-18:25 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
Once upon a time a great king was ruling over his kingdom. In that kingdom, there was a high ranking government official who owed the king a lot of money—10,000 talents to be exact. Today’s equivalent would be 9 million ounces of precious metal—let’s sa

EVERY BELIEVER’S VALUE
Matthew 18:10-18:14 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
Do you ever struggle with other believers? Do you sometimes find yourself looking around wondering if one of your dear brothers or sisters in Christ is ever going to get their act together? When’s he going to get over his sin? Will she ever stop her w

YOU’RE INVITED! RSVP REQUIRED!
Matthew 22:1-22:14 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
It’s unusual to get an invitation from the White House. I suppose it’s more unusual still to turn that invitation down. But a far greater invitation has, in fact, been offered to you and to me. Matthew 22:1-14 tells us about it. It is an invitation th

PARABLE OF THE WEEDS
Matthew 13:24-13:43 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
God is at work in the world today! That’s why hundreds of Russian school children were slaughtered by terrorists a few weeks ago. God is at work in the world today. That’s why a troubled 13-year old boy shot and killed his 16 year old brother this week

NOW THAT YOU UNDERSTAND
Matthew 13:51-13:52 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
Believe it or not, occasionally I do find myself using algebra—usually when I need to figure a percentage. And if you work construction, I’ll bet you find yourself using a lot of that geometry you swore you’d never need. In the end, understanding algebr

HOW TO ESCAPE FROM REALITY
Matthew 13:47-13:50 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
Is there anything about tomorrow we can be certain about? Is there any guarantee you’ll have your job a year from now? Is there any guarantee I won’t get cancer or you won’t die in an auto accident? Is there anything certain in this world? Is there an

RECOGNIZING CHRIST’S WORTH
Matthew 13:44-13:46 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
I sometimes wonder if I really know what it means to follow Christ. I find myself wanting to give my all for Jesus, but end up giving Him only a part. Too often my devotion is half-hearted instead of wholehearted like I want it to be. I’m double-minde

WHAT PARABLES REVEAL ABOUT YOU
Matthew 13:1-13:23 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
In the Bible Jesus says, “I came to seek and to save what was lost.” Jesus came to proclaim good news to the captives. Jesus came to reveal the truth about God. Jesus came to be light in a dark world. But what if I told you that it’s not quite as simp

THE WAY OF KINGDOM GROWTH
Matthew 13:31-13:33 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV)
Have you ever noticed that when God works, He seldom works the way we expect Him to? Would you expect God to move someone to Utah so they could find Christ? Yet that’s exactly what He did with some of you. How many times do we expect God to act one way
