Join Verse by Verse Ministry International for a powerful webinar series on the parables of Matthew 13. Pastor Wesley Livingston and Dr. Lance Hartsfield unpack the hidden spiritual truths Jesus revealed about the Church Age and God’s Kingdom plan. Each session features in-depth teaching followed by a live Q&A.

Leaven represents how false teachings subtly spread within the Church. Pastor Wesley reminds believers to stay vigilant and grounded in the truth of Scripture.

These twin parables reveal God's distinct plans for Israel and the Church.
Part 5 - Parable of the Dragnet

Part 6 - Parable of the Householder
Explore the parable of the householder in Matthew 13:52 and learn how disciples wisely share both new and old truths from God’s Word.
