Parables: Secrets of the Kingdom

Many times, when Jesus spoke, He used parables. These parables, or stories, were a mystery, a secret to those who did not respond to Jesus. But they were a treasure for the disciples, teaching them how to live, love, and honor God. As Christians, we have access to all these stories through God’s Holy Word. When we open our hearts and minds, these stories help us adjust our view of life, our thinking, and our way of living. Jesus’ parables unveil the secrets to the kingdom of heaven, challenging our hearts and strengthening our faith.
