Week 7

This Week’s Bible Story

Parable of the Great Feast (Luke 14:15-24) Jesus told a parable about a man who wanted to throw a really big party and he invited lots of people! But when the party was about to start, people made up reasons why they could not come. So the master told his messengers to invite everybody that they could. Jesus told his friends that the party is like heaven. God wants everyone in the world to spend forever with him in Heaven!
