    Fifteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Cycle A-- 15th Sunday, Year A --The Sower

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 17, 2020
     | 2,678 views

    It is the intuitive mind alone that can penetrate the essence and heart of a parable. Then it becomes a living reality, thoroughly relevant to one’s own life.

    “To throw alongside” a story with cryptic meaning is called a parable in Greek. In Zen Buddhism, a parable is like a “koan,” which is a spiritual inquiry using perplexing language intended to rouse a student’s innate wisdom-mind to apply it to their own life. As Rabbi Ibn Ezra said of parables, ...read more

    ... And He Did Not Go

     | 8,941 views

    What does God command/expect from those He calls? I wonder how many Christians are working in the vineyard with a slave mentality? The time to serve the Lord is not when your older, have more time, or when you have more experience. The time is today!

    A Buried Treasure And A Pearl

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 7,737 views

    Have you ever had to disguise a secret to keep someone from discovering it too soon? Well the parables are in some way like that. They tell of something that you know is important but you can’t quite figure it all out. The answers seem elusive.

When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. 45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 ...read more
