Introducing a new series: Making Time!

DIGITAL GROUP GUIDE

How are you at making time? Do you feel like you have enough time in the day? Do you know if you have enough time in the day? Is there a difference between how you feel about time and what you think about your time?

This is the first of a 6 part series on Making Time. Everyone has the same number of hours in the day so why do some people seem to get so much more done? Why do some other people seem so rushed and others seem so casual?

While this series can be listened to on your end, you’ll get more out of it if you listen to it together with someone else, your spouse, family, small group, book/podcast club or whatever. If you want to make it more fun and interactive with your group, download the GROUP Method discussion guide here: https://lumivoz.com/making-time/

And we are giving away 50 free GROUP Method  Notebooks. Each notebook has premium BLACK paper and comes with a white pen. To get a free notebook, you can do 1 of the following:

1. Leave a review for Making Time on your podcast app of choice.
2. Share the Making Time podcast on social media.

Take a screenshot of either one and email it to [email protected]

This podcast is just launching and still very small so if you enter, you are probably going to win! But here’s the catch, only 1 notebook and pen per email entry. If you want one for each member of your group, they each have to enter. Sorry, we can only afford to ship to the US and Canada at this time but will hopefully have some more international options soon, especially if y’all share this podcast and it gets popular enough ;)

Why does Jesus tell so many "lost things" parables? The parable of the lost coin, the lost sheep, and the prodigal son all tell the story of someone finding something that was lost. These parables are central because they are Jesus telling us his mission; the reason why he came.

The big question that we want to answer is, why did Jesus speak in parables? It's a great question. If Jesus came on a rescue mission for the world, why would he use parables as one of the primary ways to communicate with the people who he talked to?

Simple, so that anyone could hear whether they had extensive education or whether they didn't even know how to read. These stories resonate with anybody who would listen because they were common stories, and we kinda love that. God wants to be understood. But there's also another reason Jesus spoke in parables that gets a little bit more confusing. Check out this episode to find out the seemingly contradictory reasons that Jesus used parables.
