Parables for Kids

"I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world." (Matthew 13:35)

When Jesus was on earth long ago in Palestine, he told many stories. In the Holy Bible these stories are called parables. The people who came to hear these stories were sometimes happy about the story, and sometimes they were sad. Sometimes they didn't understand the story at all! We will tell the story again here, in our own modern language. Then we will talk about what Jesus meant when He told the story. I hope you have fun here!
