In this podcast episode, Christ Church Discipleship Pastor Grant Caldwell explains parables. Often used by Jesus to present a greater truth, these literary tools can contain double meanings and unclear points. However, Grant emphasizes the importance of understanding genre and context to interpret parables effectively. He addresses why Jesus taught in parables and how they serve to reveal truths and separate those who understand from those who don't. The episode concludes with practical advice on reading parables.
