The Master Teacher, Jesus Christ our Lord, employed a wide variety of pedagogical styles in order to educate His disciples. Chiefly in His instructional repertoire was the telling of parables. In this five-lecture series Father Josiah Trenham expounds the eight parables found in Chapter 13 of St. Matthew’s Gospel, otherwise known as Jesus’ Parabolic Discourse, and reveals the mysteries of God’s Kingdom in the human heart. We have some 40 different parables recorded in the Holy Gospels. Jesus used these parables both to confound insincere and shallow disciples, and to deeply reveal the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven to His faithful and authentic followers.
