Parables of Jesus
The stories Jesus told to flip people's thinking — vivid, subversive, and impossible to forget.
Listen to This Collection
The Good Samaritan
A man gets robbed and left for dead. Religious people walk past. The despised outsider stops to help. 'Who was the neighbor?'
The Prodigal Son
He took his inheritance, blew it all, and came crawling back to eat pig food. His dad threw him a party anyway.
The Shrewd Manager
A manager about to get fired cuts deals with his boss's debtors. Jesus praises the hustle. Wait, what?
The Rich Man & Lazarus
A rich man ignores a beggar at his gate. They both die. The reversal on the other side is permanent.
The Good Shepherd
'I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.' Jesus defines leadership by sacrifice.
The Wedding Feast Parables
Invitations go out to the VIPs. They all make excuses. So the host invites everyone from the streets instead.
The Narrow Door
'Strive to enter through the narrow door.' Many will try and fail. Urgency rings out — don't wait.
Counting the Cost
Following Jesus isn't casual. Count the cost first. He's not looking for fans — he wants people who'll carry a cross.
Signs of the End
On the Mount of Olives, Jesus describes the end of the world — wars, earthquakes, deception. 'Stay ready. You don't know the day.'
