Starting with the parable of the Sower, Neal looks at Matthew 13. He goes through each of the listed parables and explanations. All of these have a common thread that the soul is the most valuable item you own. And the only way to save it is through the gospel of Jesus. God's way will most likely require some sacrifice, but God wants everyone to be saved.
