The parables of Jesus are among the most memorable and enduring of the words Christ spoke on earth. When plain language was too much for his audience to bear, Jesus used the parables as a means to teach the truth in a way that his followers and even his detractors could more easily digest. This collection brings together many classic volumes that delve into the meaning of the parables, both individually and as a whole. Whether you are looking for a brief overview or a more detailed analysis of individual parables or an examination of the parables as a whole, you will find it in this collection.

The Kingdom of God is a prominent theme woven through many of Jesus’ parables. In The Parables of Jesus, Philip Coghlan delves into more than 30 parables to illuminate their meaning in a way that is both intellectual and spiritual. Coghlan seeks to facilitate Christ’s speaking to us “heart to heart” through the parables in a way that does not rely solely on feelings but also fully utilizes our intellect.
