The Parables of Jesus Millions of dollars are spent each year to produce books, DVD’s and other material designed to help people boost their self-esteem and discover their true identity.

The Parables of Jesus There are a thousand things that can happen to tempt you to lose heart, to grow weary, to become discouraged, frustrated and overwhelmed.

The Parables of Jesus During His ministry Jesus spoke of a “wedding feast” … a great banquet, hosted by God!!

In Matthew 22, Jesus uses this illustration to refer to the celebration of the coming of God’s…
The Parables of Jesus When people think of the word “philosophy” most probably think of a class you might take in college. Most people believe philosophy has nothing to do with them … yet every person who has ever lived has had a philosophy of life that they lived out, whether for good or for bad. Most people don’t even realize how their own…
The Parables of Jesus The parable of the Good Samaritan is perhaps one of the easiest parables of Jesus to understand, and perhaps one of the most difficult to DO … to live out!! The lesson is simple: Everyone God puts in your path is your neighbor, and God tells you to “love your neighbor as yourself!” Who does that?? Do we even begin to…
The Parables of Jesus Listening to Jesus tell parables, you might think He didn’t want people to understand what He was saying! However, Jesus came to reveal things that had previously been either misunderstood or totally ignored by most of the human race, from Adam and Eve forward. He spoke in parables, knowing that His Spirit would enable those whom God had chosen to…
