This is the first session of a 12-part series Dallas called “The Parabolic Teaching About Christ’s Kingdom by Christ Himself.” In introducing the series, Dallas talks about the carefully crafted teaching methods of Jesus and why he chose to use parables. He also explains some things about the faith and message of Jesus that we can enter into more fully in our own lives.
The session outline Dallas distributed to the class gives the list of topics and scriptures covered throughout the series. He encouraged participants to read the scriptures for each week before coming to class.
