Mark 4 contains a variety of parables Jesus told to illustrate the surprising and mysterious nature of God's Kingdom and the way it grows. Jesus used these stories to catch people off guard and help them understand that his way of being the Messiah would be different than what many of them expected. He wanted to help them see that sometimes, God works in ways that seem small or invisible, but that doesn't mean nothing is happening! Jesus reveals that, in God's Kingdom, little things blessed by God can make huge differences, and size does not indicate power.
