We need to really hear his real message

Jesus teaches that we need to get his message right and let it transform us.

Matthew 13:18-23 18 "Hear then the parable of the sower. 19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in the heart; this is what was sown on the path.

Do we ignore Jesus' teaching to let his message transform us?

Note: The Christian life isn't just about hearing a message, but about hearing the real message of Jesus - understanding it and internalizing it.  There is a lot of confusion in the world today about what Jesus taught.  Most of us make up Jesus' teachings so they fit neatly in our world and don't rock it too badly.  But Jesus' message will change everything if we are really open to it.
