In a cultural moment saturated with commercialism, Jesus calls us to see Him as the Hidden Treasure and the Pearl of Great Value\u2014the One who brings true joy, identity, and freedom. We explore why commercialism has such a strong pull, how these parables dismantle the lie of \u201cnot enough,\u201d and what it means to reorient our lives around Jesus. You\u2019ll also be equipped with reflection questions to help you slow down and behold Christ during the Christmas season.
