The Parables of Jesus

"The Parables of Jesus" is the first offering in the new series ”Bible Study That Matters." This series was developed especially for those who are dissatisfied with the type of Bible study normally found in Sunday Schools, Bible study groups, and devotional guides. It's for those who want more than a few feel-good platitudes and want to dive in to the biblical text and see what's really there. Written in a clear, conversational style, "The Parables of Jesus" gives a close-up view of the major parables of Jesus. Helps you explore the parables and examine them from various angles. Common sense analysis encourages you to think and ponder. Explains and illustrates essential tools that will aid you not only in your study of parables, but in your study of the entire Bible. Focuses on what the Bible actually says, and what it does not say. This study does not spoon-feed you other peoples' opinions. It helps you ask the hard questions and consider the hard issues so that you can develop your own interpretations. If you want to understand the parables, instead of just read about them, then this study's for you.
