In this week’s episode, Brian takes us through Matthew 7-16, focusing on the Kingdom of Heaven and what it reveals about identity, fear, and faith.

He examines Jesus' frequent use of parables, showing how they challenged listeners to figure out the meaning, but often brought more confusion than answers.

Brian then highlights how the human race wants answers and systems to follow, but Jesus seeks to destroy systems so we can learn to embrace His mystery and deepen our faith.

Digging Deeper Reflection Questions:

1. What systems do you find yourself relying on more than trusting God?

2. What scares you most about walking by faith and embracing the mystery of God's ways?

3. What is one truth Jesus teaches in this week's readings that you can intentionally apply every day this week?

We pray this week’s readings, episode, and Digging Deeper reflection questions both challenge and encourage you as you continue to grow in your faith.
