Jesus the Storyteller: Awakening Love & Inspiring Action
A Bible and Beyond Mini-Course presented by Dr. Shirley Paulson
About the Mini-Course
Can you imagine what it was like to hear Jesus teach through parables? Their meaning was rarely obvious at first. Even today, after hearing them many times, we still have to pause, listen carefully, and remain open. Jesus’s parables can be inspiring, beautiful, and deeply encouraging—but they can also unsettle us, challenging assumptions when we least expect it.
This three-module mini course explores several parables that draw us closer to Jesus while still inviting us to see something new. These stories confront false powers, stretch our imagination, and continue to inspire genuine transformation of heart and life.
What to Expect
The course is divided into three modules, each containing a single lecture. You can watch the videos at your convenience and enjoy continuing access. The full course includes about twenty-five minutes of recorded instruction.
Enrollment in this self-study mini-course is available now, and priced at $9.95.
When it’s being offered, enrollment in the Live Online Hybrid version of the course is $29.00.

Two Types of Courses
Bible and Beyond offers two different types of courses. One is a self-study course. This consists of recorded lectures which you can view at your own pace, 24/7. You can purchase the self-study version of any course and immediately start learning at any time. The other is a live online hybrid course. Live online hybrid courses consist of recorded lectures you can watch anytime, and live Zoom discussions led by Dr. Shirley Paulson. A variety of live online hybrid courses are offered at different times throughout the year. Visit live online hybrid course page to learn more and check out the schedule.
Would you like to host a live online hybrid course group? If you and a group of friends are interested in taking a course together, we are interested in making that happen! All courses are available as live online hybrids, so just get in touch with us to work out the details.
