A Man Lived...101 Parables. A Collection of Christian Parables and Tales

A parable is a short allegorical, instructive tale. From generation to generation, parables were passed down from mouth to mouth, yet they have not lost their wisdom and simplicity. They always encourage a person to reflect, carry kindness and love within them, and teach how to find answers to the questions of existence. In different times and in various countries, many people seek advice in parables, stories from the lives of saints, and in oral traditions.

The collection includes only a hundred parables that have arisen over the two thousand years of Christianity's existence. This is an integral part of human culture, the wisdom of many generations, reaching directly to the heart.
