We all want to decorate our Christian lives, but a lot of us haven't built on the proper foundation yet. Jesus' parable of the two builders is one of the best known in the Bible, and the storm in it may not be the one you expect.In this episode, we walk through Matthew 7:24–27, from why Matthew and Luke word the parable differently to who Jesus was actually talking to on the mountain. Let's look at what it means to build on the rock and what the storm is really pointing to.0:00 Building by the Book: Tim the Toolman and the Shortcut Trap7:41 Matthew vs. Luke: Why the Wording Differs12:23 Who Was Jesus Talking To?17:38 What Does It Mean to Build on the Rock?23:42 Are You Ready for the Storm?
