Spiritual Formation Institute Seminar 2011/1
The Stories that Jesus Told -Exploring the Challenge of His Parables
Speaker: Rev Dr Lim Kar Yong
Synopsis of Seminar
Jesus is a master storyteller. But the parables he tells are more than interesting plotlines that captivate his audience. They reveal the character of God and his kingdom, announce the expectation God has for his people, and challenge the assumptions of the hearers in order to orientate their lives in the light of the coming of the kingdom. We will carry out an in-depth study of selected parables of Jesus to learn afresh the impact and challenge they have in our lives today.
