I will cover it in 4 sessions. • Frankly, nothing is more important in our walk with God, than be able to hear and understand what God is saying. • Let’s look at Luke ...read more

In Zen Buddhism, a parable is like a “koan,” which is a spiritual inquiry using perplexing language intended to rouse a student’s innate wisdom-mind to apply it to their own life. As Rabbi Ibn Ezra said of parables, ...read more
