Why did Jesus speak in parables? What was he trying to teach, evoke and inspire with these stories he seemed to spin from a place beyond time and season? And, what might we be missing if we simply approach them with an “I like this. I don’t like that.” mindset? In this week’s sermon “Snake oil & Dragon fire”, Rev. Meyers will explore the character of our discipleship through the lens of the parable of the Ten Bridesmaids in Matthew 25.
