Show Notes

If we seek to teach in the Savior's way, a common approach the Lord used was parables. In fact, Mark says that "without a parable spake he not unto them" (Mark 4:34). Good parables are multi-layered, and the teacher often leaves them uninterpreted to cause listeners to reflect and draw meaning. In this episode, BYU Religion's Hank Smith shares insights from his publication on the parables of Jesus, why the Lord utilized them to teach, and why we should seek to do the same today.
