Everybody loves a good story. A great storyteller can captivate children, enchant adults and change the minds and hearts of those who listen. Jesus was a master storyteller. His parables continue to intrigue, inspire, puzzle, challenge and amuse all who encounter them. They are the basis for sermons in Christian churches around the world, and they are the first stories of Jesus that are taught to children. In Tell Me Your Story: The Parables of Jesus, Arthur Zannoni offers insights into the stories that Jesus told, drawing on the latest scripture scholarship. Then he invites us to understand the stories as challenges for today's disciples and as keys helping us unfold the mysteries of our own stories. Preachers, catechists, Bible-study groups, continuing education classes and individuals who wish to grow in their understanding of God's word will appreciate and enjoy this book.
