From the very beginning, human beings have loved to listen to stories. And Jesus loved to tell them. The parables are vivid, rich,arresting stories that make us think and teach us lessons about our relationship with God and others. From talents to mustard seeds, from shepherds to Samaritans, Jesus used common reference points to teach important truths.
But the parables are filled with ambiguity and room for interpretation. With historical and cultural background, and careful scholarly detail, this book helps readers explore their beauty, richness, and joy.
Includes discussion questions and activities. Chapters are organized by parable types such as seeking and growth.

If your customers are looking for accessible Biblical study guides, either for personal or group use, then look no further. The "Conversations with Scripture" series either looks at individual Biblical books, or as in the case of this latest volume, Biblical topics. The series isn't so highbrow that only those versed in Greek can understand it, but equally doesn't talk down the way some commentaries can. The author is an expert in the field and knows how best to study the Parables, which are filled with ambiguity and much room for interpretation. He has organised each chapter by Parable type - such as seeking and growth and left room for activity ideas, such as role-playing, parable writing or music. This book gives the historical and cultural background and will help readers to explore the beauty, richness and joy that the Parables contain. Each book in the series has strong branding and is designed to stand out on the shelf.
