Paperback. Zustand: Good. Jesus was a skilled storyteller and perceptive teacher who used parables from everyday life to effectively convey his message and meaning.

With this revitalized understanding, she interprets these moving stories for the contemporary reader, showing how the parables are not just about Jesus, but are also about us--and when read rightly, still challenge and provoke us two thousand years later.The Leader Guide contains everything needed to guide a group through the six-week study including session plans, activities, and discussion questions, as well as multiple format options.…
