Stories have an inexplicable power. They can cut through positions, prejudices, and paradigms to reach the human heart. Logic has its power, but in today's world, stories are the trump card.

Jesus was the Master Storyteller. His parables live on today as the standard for all other stories. He placed a high value on parables as a teaching tool. They draw you into His heart, reveal God's heart, and expose the true quality of your own heart.

God's reign is moving toward its ultimate fulfillment. The parables of Jesus define His kingdom, reveal His methods, and prepare our hearts. Dr. C. Michael Moss gives expert background and insight into forty-two parables of Jesus recorded in the Gospel accounts.

"If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear" (Mark 4:23)
