Jesus spoke to the people of His day in parables. These short stories had a moral or spiritual principle He wanted to communicate. They were intriguing and compelling. They were practical. He must have been a very interesting person to hear speak.

He broadcast His stories like a farmer sowing his seed. He just put them out there. He was like a broadcast spreader we would use on our lawn. He walked along throwing the seed out.

We should broadcast our stories more.

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, we take our example from You. Give us boldness to proclaim the Good News of Your Kingdom through interesting stories.

DAILY READING: Matthew 12,13
