by E. G. White

Everyone loves a good story, but stories are not just for entertainment. They are effective and memorable teaching tools. Jesus, the Master Teacher, told dozens of stories during His ministry to help us understand God and His ways. Jesus’ stories, known as parables, are object lessons that use everyday items and familiar situations to illustrate spiritual truths. 

The beauty of parables is that they are simple enough for a child to understand yet filled with layers of meaning that challenge the deepest thinker. In this book E. G. White unpacks the significance of Jesus’ parables, bringing their messages home to today’s world. Themes such as love, forgiveness, prayer, generosity, and service shine with new brilliance in these stories of farmers and fathers, businessmen and beggars, bakers and bridesmaids.

Like the Gospels, this is a book you’ll want to read again and again, discovering new treasures of truth each time you open it.
