Redemption Bible Church is led by Pastor Jason Mayhall in the sermon series entitled "Parables of Jesus." Jesus used parables, simple stories people can relate to, as a way to illustrate a spiritual truth. In this parable, Jesus describes the Kingdom of Heaven and how being granted entrance to it is something that's worth losing everything for. Jesus uses examples such as a merchant seeking a beautiful pearl and land containing buried treasure to describe other similar things that were seen as worth losing everything for. When we hear about the joy of the individuals who purchased the pearl and the land, it is evident that this is how we should think about the Kingdom of Heaven.
