In this episode of Reclaiming Truth, Mike Wilson and Larry Montgomery welcome guest Ron Copass for a study of the parable of the talents in Matthew 25 and what it reveals about Christian stewardship. Rather than treating stewardship as a matter of money alone, the discussion widens it to the management of everything God has entrusted: time, ability, opportunity, and possessions.

In this episode of Reclaiming Truth, Mike Wilson and Larry Montgomery finish their study of Matthew 13 with its two most debated parables: the mustard seed and the leaven. Mike makes the case that these parables picture not the triumphant growth of the church but the creeping corruption that would enter the kingdom. The hosts also walk through Jesus' own explanation of the weeds and the glorious parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great price. Examining Exodus 13, Leviticus 2, Mark 4, and Luke 8, the episode is offered humbly as an invitation to study, encouraging listeners to weigh both views against the Bible and church history and reach their own conclusion.

In this episode of Reclaiming Truth, Mike Wilson and Larry Montgomery begin a careful, verse-by-verse study of the parables of Matthew 13, opening a series they acknowledge may be controversial and asking listeners to search the Scriptures for themselves. Starting with the parable of the sower, the discussion works through the four soils and the vital importance of hearing, understanding, and bearing fruit, while weighing the relationship between faith and works from James 2. The conversation then turns to the parable of the wheat and the weeds, where an enemy sows corruption alongside the good seed, and considers why the two must grow together until the harvest.
