The Kingdom’s Worth It (Matthew 13:44-46)
Big Idea: What is the Kingdom like? It’s like a treasure buried.
Purpose: To imagine what the quest for the supremely valuable Kingdom might look like today.
You may have heard of Steve Vaught, a man from California. You may not know his name as well as his nickname, Fat Man Walking. Steve writes:
My Name is Steve Vaught, (born Stephen James Liller in Youngstown, Ohio). I am a 39 year old, happily married father of two great kids and I have a pretty good life here in Southern California. You would think that I would be happy because of these things, but I am not. I am not happy because I am fat and being fat makes every day unhappy.
