The Parables And Teaching Of Jesus

DAY 10 OF 21

The Parable of Bigger Barns

This parable is unique to Luke and has a parallel in Ben Sirach 11:18–19: “One becomes rich through diligence and self-denial, and the reward allotted to him is this: when he says, ‘I have found rest, and now I shall feast on my goods!’ he does not know how long it will be until he leaves them to others and dies.”

What in your life will last longer than riches?
