Hidden Treasures

Jesus’ parables about the good Samaritan, the prodigal son, and the home built on sand are more than just entertaining stories. They illustrate important life lessons and provide a glimpse into the divine kingdom. In fact, His parables are so powerful, their messages so universal, that they are known throughout the world to both believers and nonbelievers.

Jill Briscoe digs deeper into these earthly stories with heavenly messages as she brings Jesus’ parables to life in this series. Join her to discover what the rich life in the kingdom will be about.
