Parables of Jesus: Stories to Encourage and Challenge
One of the signature features of Jesus’s teaching was his use of parables to communicate his message. This workshop will explore several of the parables, highlighting especially the way in which they leave decision and response in the hands of the listeners. What message of encouragement and challenge do the parables of Jesus address to twenty-first-century readers?
John is the Harriet Robertson Fitts Memorial Professor of New Testament at Union Presbyterian Seminary, Richmond, VA.
