There is one parable Jesus said was the KEY to all the parables. Why is this parable so important? What does Jesus know about the brain? How often is the sower sowing seed? Is the sower simply sloppy or is the sower intentional about where the seed is falling? Why would the sower sow seed where it won't grow? What kind of soil are you this season? Has it changed since last year? Are you taking care to make sure you are fertile soil? Mark 4. Part 1 of 2.

Do you want to be loved? Are you pretending to be someone else? If so, you are in good company. What do you do when a crisis arises? How do you handle stress? What happens when you get angry with God? How do you pray when you don't feel like it? Does quoting Bible verses work for stress? Does God want to walk with you and comfort you in distress? How does suffering allow you to bring God into your problems? Why do some people feel entitled to a better life? Do you try to control too much in your life? How can you have more joy? How can you reframe your problem into a learning experience?

Bad relationships can make you sick. With the best of intentions I was trying to make a relationship work and it ended badly. She was understandably angry and I felt manipulated. But don't stop at the breakup. There is much to learn from our mistakes. How does people-pleasing set you up to make poor decisions? How easily are you manipulated into staying in bad relationships? After a breakup - can you forgive? Who gives you advice about your relationships?

Creature Comforts. Comfort Foods. Even in the womb we seek comfort and continue throughout life. From the time we wake up in the morning until we go to sleep we are very interested in our personal comfort. Does God want to comfort you? Are you looking to find comfort in screen time, movies, social media, sweets, food, an addictive person, gambling, money, shopping, work, exercise and many others. Not all comforts are bad, but any comfort can hinder your spiritual growth. Many people want God to comfort them but are unable to receive comfort from God. Why? With personal examples, Dr. Levy shows what it looks like to seek comfort apart from God and what it looks like to allow God to comfort you.

Are you disappointed with God for something in the past? Unanswered prayer? Relationship failure? Do you have trouble believing God is good? It is worth reframing events of the past and rekindling hope. Audio from 2017 New Zealand Conference Video 2. Video on YouTube at https://youtu.be/sd1hmRO76AU
John 8 Woman caught in adultery. 7:30 Covering shame. 7:50 Joy depends on treatment of weakness. 10:30 Rick and Rita home birth tragedy. 17:30 Parents often withdraw their love as a behavior modifier. 19:00 You will grow from suffering. 21:30 Disappointments with God are obstacles to relationship. 23:15 My circumstances affect my feelings, but do not need to control me. Circumstances do not determine God's love for me. 24:15 The pain of singleness. 27:45 We seek comfort but we often forget to grieve. 31:05 Jesus understands how you were set up to fall. 34:37 Self-pity feels good in the moment, and it seems free and justified, but you won't like the cost. 36:57 Renouncing vows and agreements. 38:00 God why? 39:15 We expect an apology when offended. 49:53 Forgiveness is not reconciliation.

Younger brothers who take short cuts usually irritate older brothers who do not. We can empathize with the Elder Brother as he comes home to an unwelcome surprise. His younger brother is being celebrated at a party after losing the entire inheritance. How are you at celebrating those who have made mistakes? While we can relate to the brothers shame and struggle, we can learn much from The Father. Story is found in Luke 15.
I concluded this message with an Imagination Journey that is not found on this recording but "The Elder Brother Comes Home" Imagination Journey/Meditation can be found under "Imagination Journeys" on Dr. David Levy App or on YouTube at:

If you had one hundred $1 bills and one was missing, would you leave $99 on the table and go look for your lost $1? What kind of crazy shepherd is this?
Luke 15 Parable of Lost Sheep, coin, son.
At the conference, I did an imagination meditation involving picturing yourself as a sheep and allowing The Shepherd to come find you and put you on his shoulders and take you home. You can find the meditation here:
