Jesus often taught in parables, and his parables are rich in truth for Bible teachers. However, teaching the parables can have some challenges. Some approach parables allegorically, expecting every element of the story to have a spiritual application. This can be problematic because the parable becomes hard to interpret. Some approach teaching the parables in a word by word, line by line, or verse by verse style looking for various points from the story. This often misses the point of the parable. Interpreting a parable takes work, often the context of the time gives essential information in finding the point of the story.
