Modern Day Parables

This is a long video… You’ve been advised.

But, in what was a forty minute presentation edited to remove group conversations, we used about ten-plus minutes of video clips.  These clips  were downloaded from the internet.

On Tuesdays, we are going to look at YouTube clips and treat them like modern day parables – applying spiritual principles to the images of the day.

Just in case you have not figured it out just yet, you can download clips that you find with YouTube converters like this. (Seriously, just do a search for YouTube converter to find one that works for you and that you like – Comment below with your favorite)

I also hope that this video shows that you don’t have to dumb down content while utilizing a kid’s cartoon.  Parable are meant to get one thinking.
