From childhood fables to Hollywood movies to the books on your coffee table, stories impact how you see the world and how you live. The parables of Jesus are the world's most influential stories--even people who've never read the Bible know phrases like "good Samaritan" or "prodigal son". His parables show us His Kingdom, completely different from the world we know. They aren't just fascinating stories; they're life-changing truths that challenge how we see God, His Kingdom and our lives.
