—Psalm 78:1-7

Children learn from stories. One of the best ways to teach children something is to tell them a story. There is something about a story that makes it memorable, where simply giving them the rule or any other point you want to teach won’t work. So it’s no wonder that God uses parables to teach us, his children. Parables are easy to remember so that we can pass them on to our children. Telling and retelling the stories that make us who we are, both as Christians and as Seventh Day Baptists, is vital to keeping our faith alive and growing.
