The Parable of the Lost Sheep
Returning to the Fold
Jesus taught that there would be joy in heaven over every person who repents. See how he used a parable about a lost sheep to emphasize the worth of every soul.
In the Bible, Jesus often taught in parables, or simple stories that used everyday situations His listeners were familiar with, to teach a moral principle. Today, some of those situations may not be as familiar to us, but the lessons they teach are just as valuable. Missionaries can help you become more familiar with Christ’s teachings in the Bible and the Book of Mormon.
