Jesus was a master storyteller. He used everyday situations and familiar ideas to teach deeper truths about Himself, about His Father and what it meant to live in the Kingdom of God. These stories, known as parables, each had contained within them truth that Jesus wanted those who were genuinely seeking Him to be able to understand, and which often exposed the heart of those who were only listening in order to criticise and condemn.

In this study we continue our monthly Lightning Study Series - 'Stories Jesus Told' in which we explore further some of Jesus's parables.
