What\, exactly\, are these parables? Are they 鈥渆arthly stories with a heavenly meaning鈥? How should we read and apply them faithfully as Christians in our lives today? This workshop will first explore what kind of stories parables are. Then\, we will construct a method for reading them that is faithful to their literary form and that all God鈥檚 people can use. Finally\, we will apply the method and walk through multiple parables together to see how Jesus uses this literary form to teach us more about who He is and what it means to belong to His kingdom. \n\n\n\n\nDr. James Fickenscher\nAssistant professor of Exegetical Theology\nDr. James Fickenscher is assistant professor of Exegetical Theology at SA国际传媒\, St. Louis.
