Jesus often used stories & analogies to drive home a point, moral, or lesson. These stories often included unscrupulous characters that actually display some positive virtue or ethic that the listeners could learn from. These stories/analogies Jesus told are called parables.

Listen in as we work through some of Jesus' parables...We will work through 7 parables and learn the lessons Jesus taught working our way from large & important concepts down to the details of our lives.

In Matthew 18, Jesus tells a story that illustrates what it means to forgive and clearly lays out God's expectation of us to forgive each other. God freely offers us forgiveness of our immeasurable debt, therefore, his expectation of us is that we will do likewise for each other. Jesus reminds us that God's forgiveness is linked to our forgiveness. Our actions reveal the condition of our hearts.
