This 10-part series explores what are commonly referred to as the parables of the kingdom found in the Gospel of Matthew. These 8 parables are filled with insights into the nature of heaven, and most importantly the principles that govern it. This means that they offer us an understanding of the nature of heavenly life so that we might begin to examine our own life in the light of this and in doing so, discover how the operation of spiritual principles within our mind might be experienced as the kingdom of heaven coming within, as an interior state of being.
