    The Big Idea: We don’t always like the warnings Scripture gives us. In the parable of the wicked tenants, Jesus warns the religious leaders of of the consequences of not bearing the fruit God is looking for.

So that’s where this title comes from, and I’ll talk more about this later. An interesting thing about ...read more
