In this podcast, Pastor Dan Smail and Wendy Farone discuss “the point” of a parable. Jesus was genius in His design and approach to teaching in this way. We discuss three main parts to look for in a parable including a complete thought, a point being made (spiritual wisdom), and a deeper understanding of the truth. The book, Luther’s Aesop, is linked below as are the 2 Bible Project videos with even more information about parables!!
