Parable #1
I enjoy a good parable, and I came across this site with a bunch of parables. I will post my favorite two, but check out the parable site for more.
A group of people are standing at a river bank and suddenly hear the cries of a baby. Shocked, they see an infant floating–drowning–in the water. One person immediately dives in to rescue the child. But as this is going on, yet another baby comes floating down the river, and then another! People continue to jump in to save the babies and then see that one person has started to walk away from the group still on shore. Accusingly they shout, “where are you going?” His response: “I’m going upstream to stop whoever’s throwing babies into the river
Wow! These are great! I´m going to remember to bookmark the site for future ministry use. Thanks for sharing!
