I've always loved telling stories. Pictures in our minds capture the imagination in a way that moves us to response. In my opinion, a parable trumps data and lecture any day.

This episode gives commentary around the value of story in the realm of mental health, and interacts with three parables I've been working on:

"A hundred dollars";

"Peach Stones and the Tree of Life.", and;

"Elvis in the Judean Foothills".
