Timeless Truths Told for Today
Welcome to Modern Day Parables, a place where everyday life opens the door to eternal truth.
Each week, Patrick and Dr. Muthoni Omukhango share a fresh parable crafted for the modern world yet rooted in the wisdom of God. Through simple stories, familiar struggles, quiet surprises, and powerful lessons, these parables shine light on the matters of the heart, the home, faith, character, relationships, purpose, and the ways of God.
Just as truth once walked through fields, vineyards, fishing boats, lamps, seeds, and lost coins, here it now walks through homes, schools, markets, offices, phones, roads, families, and ordinary people living ordinary lives.
And still, the message remains extraordinary.
