This practice preceded the ministry of Jesus and continues today in many cultures. But Jesus was a master of storytelling. His words provide many with guidelines and a road map for living. Using familiar imagery found in nature and other recognizable sources, he engaged his listeners with lessons that confronted every aspect of their lives, providing the tools for self-examination and change. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSpeaking in parables, however, sometimes caused confusion for his listeners, and readers today may wonder what exactly he meant, and how his words apply to everyday life. This book looks at each of Jesus's parables, explaining the key points, the central themes, and the meanings we can take away from the stories. By considering each parable in depth, the author helps readers come to a better understanding of the teachings of Jesus and what they mean for our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henry Covert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0313349622\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313349621\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.31h x 6.44w x 0.71d","brand":"Henry Covert","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45896407941375,"sku":"9780313349621","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_854097e2-a481-460d-b6b8-9d2e95f9d255.jpg?v=1721371320","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/discovering-the-parables-henry-covert-9780313349621","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
