Jesus often taught through parables — simple stories carrying deep spiritual truth. These stories reveal the heart of God and confront the heart of man. They teach us about mercy, repentance, the kingdom, and what genuine faith looks like.
Why Jesus Used Parables
- Parables make truth memorable.
- Parables expose what the heart loves.
- Parables call for response, not applause.
Living the lesson
Don’t read parables like trivia. Ask: What does this reveal about God? What does it confront in me? What obedience is God calling for today?
