For believers concerned about global challenges

Explains parables through the lens of modern greed

Helps you live with empathy in a changing world

A thought-provoking look at Jesus' parables in the context of modern power and climate change.

Our Mission

Equipping you for life's journey with Jesus:

  • Now a team of 60 – we've been serving the Church since 2004
  • Together we've raised over £1,000,000 for UK Christian charities
  • 25,000 churches are using the Eden Plus account

The psychological process of denial involves refusing to see what is in front of us, and for some time we have been struggling to shape master narratives to encompass climate breakdown. Jesus' longer parables offer insight into the possibilities that are hidden within the hierarchies of power. Through the work of understanding the experiences of all the parable actors, we are invited to practice the empathy required to face the global challenges of the twenty-first century.
