Why do you speak to them in parables? -- Hearts ready to receive the word -- The children of light and the children of darkness -- And who is my neighbor? -- Even if one should rise from the dead -- Redemption, rejoicing, and rejection in Luke 15 -- What will he do to those tenants? -- Unworthy guests -- When the son of man comes, will he find faith on earth? -- The exalted humbled and the humbled exalted -- The shrewd sons of this age -- Miserly fairness versus extravagant grace -- Well done, good and faithful servant -- So also my heavenly father will do to you -- The kingdom of Heaven is like this -- When the son of man comes in his glory -- You know neither the day nor the hour.

"In Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, renowned pastor and theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. unlocks the power of Jesus' parables for readers today. Jesus perfected the art of telling parables--short stories with a surprising twist and an explosive message that confronted his listeners with surprising (and often uncomfortable) truths about the human heart and the kingdom of heaven. But two thousand years later, modern readers may not grasp the cultural and historical context that made these stories so compelling for Jesus' original audience. Mohler brings Jesus' stories to life, uncovering the context and allowing readers to hear these stories in all their shocking, paradigm-shifting power." --Publisher description.
