It doesn’t take a theologian to understand that Jesus does not sound like a Priest, a Pharisee, a Scribe, or even Paul when he teaches. Unlike these religious scholars, Jesus chooses to get his point across using folktales. “Once upon a time,” is his stock and trade. Once upon a time somebody planted some seeds. Once upon a time somebody tripped over a great treasure. Once upon a time somebody lost something precious. Jesus ‘s stories are alive with farmers and fisherman, masters and servants, bridegrooms and brides, fathers and sons. They contain life and death, joy and sorrow. Matthew writes that Jesus said nothing to the crowds without a parable. Put another way, he was always telling them stories. “I will open my mouth in parables,” Jesus says, “I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world." And how does he do it? By unearthing the truth that has been hidden, dusting it off, and explaining it in terms simple enough that even a Doctor of Divinity can understand.
The Parables: Why Do Ministers Have to Complicate Things?
Matthew 13:44-52; Matthew 13:1-23 (Pastor Jim); Matthew 13:24-36

Who We Are
Shiloh Community Church is a group of Believers who point at Jesus and say, "We can't prove a thing, but there's something about his eyes and his voice. There's something about the way he carries his head, his hands, the way he carries his cross—the way he carries us.”
We believe Jesus when he said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me." (John 14:6) He didn't say that any doctrine or denomination was the way, the truth, and the life. He said that he was.
We are a group of Believers who are on the way, though not necessarily very far along it, and who have at least some dim and half-baked notion of whom to thank.
