Jesus taught that narrow was the gate and difficult was the path that leads to life, and few find it. However, the modern gospel that is preached and accepted to be the truth these days is more akin to the broad way that Jesus also mentioned. Please find in this collection of 54 parables taught by Jesus himself a narrow and difficult path indeed. You may not have ever heard these parables with the meanings that come to light in this audiobook.

These parables and the way they are explained would make for a very difficult path to follow. They will dispel a lot of religious misconceptions that you may hold dear. Please don’t be too quick to discount them as too hard to obey or difficult to adhere to. Jesus says while He respects diverse interpretations of parables, His encouragement remains steadfast for preaching and reflecting upon these profound teachings.

Matthew Robert Payne first taught the 54 parables in 2011 in his first book and has been living out their truth ever since. Through those 11 years, Matthew has collected quite a bit of testimony concerning them, and seeing as Jesus uses Matthew’s known theology as the vessel that he brings His voice through, please forgive the innumerable mentions of Matthew and his life experiences in the illustrations Jesus uses. We hope that the many mentions of Matthew do not detract from the message. Come with us as Tolu Sarah Johnson questions Jesus about his age-old stories and finds them illuminated by Jesus himself in this book that may take you more than one read through to capture His wisdom and warnings. Be blessed.
