Hi Reader, If you’ve ever wondered why Jesus taught the way He did, this is your chance to uncover the answer. Jesus revealed profound truths about God’s kingdom through parables—stories that are simple yet deeply powerful.

Hi Reader, What if growing in your faith could also help others in a time of urgent need? Jesus’ parables challenge us to live out the values of God’s kingdom, such as compassion, generosity, and love for our neighbors.
