Hi everybody, welcome to the Don't Miss This Podcast.

A come follow me study with Emily Bell Freeman and David Butler.

We fill this show up with all the things we think you don't want to miss in the scriptures every week.

Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoy the show.

Well, howdy, I'm Dave Butler.

I'm Emily Freeman.

Welcome to Don't Miss This. We're so happy you're here. This is our scripture study podcast channel.

Move through the new testament this year pointing out everything you love and don't want to miss.

So this one's awesome. It ends so good. We're saving the best for last.

We're calling it, it's Matthew 19 through 20, Mark 10, Luke 18.

And we're calling it the good master. This is something that someone we're going to meet today.

The rich young ruler is what you might know him as. This is something that he's going to call Jesus.

But we love that you kind of see this theme throughout the entire...

All the stories happen to happen to have this theme through him.

So let's jump in the first section. If you go to Luke 18, there's this parable that starts out.

And this is one spot where I think it's important to note that all parables don't have a match to match for everything.

Otherwise, you'll read some of them and just kind of like, hold on, that doesn't seem right or this is missing.

And you have to remember it's like, oh, I'm just kind of comparing it to something.

I'm not like, this is exactly what's happening.

And do you ever notice this too? Sometimes you'll read one parable at one time in your life and it will mean something to you.

And then you could read it two decades later and be like, oh, now I see this woman in a totally different way than I maybe would have seen her.

Because of life experience or circumstance or perspective changes and you kind of love that a parable can grow and shift with where your level of knowledge is or where your need of knowledge is.
