Bag om Not the Parables of Jesus

Restore the wonder of the parables, the joy of the Gospel ... and the discomfort of the Sword of Truth stabbed firmly in your gut. Not the Parables of Jesus contains more than 40* different takes on the original parables to snap us out of our over-familiarity and to open our eyes to the truth of the Gospel. Half tongue-in-cheek, half right between the eyes Often fun, sometimes poignant, and occasionally painful; these parables reveal our cultural biases, hidden assumptions, and the lies we believe. If I were alive today, I would be happy to condemn these parables as heretical. Martin Luther† 'Awesome. Excellent. Recommended' are some adjectives I found in the thesaurus.
