It was once said that Jesus could be considered to be ‘the greatest teacher of all time, not just because of what he said but the way in which he said it!’ He was a brilliant teacher; his stories or parables have been remembered by millions of people for two thousand years and in hundreds of difference languages. The parables are simple. Yet they are memorable stories of everyday life. Stories which have been given meaning and significance. He transformed the daily routine into lessons for eternity. He invested simple acts with priceless value. He provided unsurpassed narrative which can be re-told to people of all ages with a message which is crystal clear and still of value to anyone seeking to follow Jesus in the 21st century.
