OVERVIEW
What are parables and why did Jesus teach in parables?
“Parables are graphic stories that Jesus created, drawn from everyday life, but often with an unexpected twist or turn, to help us understand one essential element of the dynamic rule and reign of God as it penetrates this world.” (Kirby)
Parables come in three flavors: parables of the kingdom, of grace and of judgment.
