The hard truth is not everyone who attends a church, participates in worship, and hears a sermon is going to “get it.” Often, Jesus would use this phrase to exhort listeners to ponder the meaning of His words. It was also an indicator that some would have ears to hear and some would not.
The word for “hear” carries connotations of not only hearing, but also listening and obeying. This implies that true hearing involves acting on what is heard. How do you intentionally seek to apply what you hear, read, or are challenged by in your Church gatherings? - Pastor Jimmy
