Ignite Your Life With Bible Wisdom
Jesus used short stories called parables to convey profound spiritual truths. The parables charge our spiritual journey with energy and our soul with light.

Students become familiar with the power of the parable stories as inspiration for transforming the soul. Students bring the ancient parables to life, and relate them to the challenges of today’s world as they engage in discussions, role-playing, and problem-solving exercises, as well as creative arts expressions. Students may be beginners in exploring the arts as tools for contemplation and meditation.
