A message from the series “Toolbox for Evangelism.” Nearly 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.

CloseEcclesiastes 3:1-8 is one of the most well-known parts of Ecclesiastes, but that doesn't mean that it's necessarily understood. We commonly read past it, thinking that it just repeats itself over and over again, possibly for effect. But contained within these couplets are timeless truths that will help us live stronger, more spiritual lives every single day.
