Andy Constable outlines how all three talks on Matthew 13 will be about being ready to share the gospel. The disciples were expecting Jesus to overthrow the occupying Roman powers, but here in Matthew, he starts to explain what the Kingdom of God really is about. 1. Parable of the soils / sowers - We can't share the gospel without the right attitude to the word of God 2. Parable of the weeds - We have a powerful enemy, but Jesus is more powerful 3. Parable of the hidden treasure - Following Jesus will be costly, but worth it.
