Stories Jesus Told

STORIES JESUS TOLD You do not have to be a Christian or know anything about the Bible to enjoy these Ohana group materials. You do not have to read, talk, sing, pray or share during the group time if you do not feel comfortable doing so. You are welcome to simply come and listen. These materials are designed to help people examine the stories or parables that Jesus told and how they can be relevant to life today. Within the session guides you will find links to other topics on what Jesus said about various subjects such as Who He Is, Forgiveness, Judgment, etc. Some of the links will also include His practical teachings on money, marriage, conflict resolution, etc. Whenever you see one of the link symbols -- -- it is an opportunity for your group to decide if they want to go to that link for the next session. This way, the group can tailor-make each session to fit the needs of the group. If there is no need for digging deeper into a particular topic, then your group should move to the next Story Jesus Told. Even if the group does not want to go to a link, you may personally choose to do so. Simply ask your Ohana leader for the guide sheet on the topic that interests you. You can go through the material on your own or with a friend or another Ohana member. Thank you for joining us on this journey toward a deeper spiritual experience through Stories Jesus Told.
