A message from the series “Songs of the Saints.” The Psalms of Ascent were sang by the Israelites on the way to worship in Jerusalem. It can also be an allegory for our life if we use it to meditate on our path towards Heaven.

CloseNearly a third of Jesus' teachings consisted of stories, or parables. These seemingly innocent tales were not just given for entertainment though -- they were designed to penetrate the heart in a way a series of commands couldn't. They forced the listener to meditate on the teachings and make the change from the inside out. As such, they were exceedingly effective. Can we use parables today? Of course! Maybe not in the same way as Jesus, but using illustrations can still be effective if handled properly.
