Adult Education Series: The Parables of Jesus

In the upcoming weeks we will read and discuss some of the parables of Jesus found in the gospels.

July 31st: For our first week, we will be reading the Parable of the Two Debtors, Luke 7:41-43.

Aug 7th: This week, we will review the Parable of the Weeds, Matthew 13:24-30.

Sept 11th: Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard, Matthew 20:1-16.

Sept 18th: Parable of the Valuable Coins, Matthew 25:14-30.

Sept. 25th: We are drawing our discussion of the parables of Jesus to a close this week. Our time together this Sunday will be an opportunity to go back over the parables we have been reading through in the past weeks to see what has stuck with us and what has challenged us. Questions for us to consider: What exactly do we think a parable is now? What parable was the most difficult for us? What character in the parables do we identify with the most?
