Synopsis

Exploring and Applying the Parables of Jesus found only in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark

For those who have ears to hear, the parables of Jesus speak as sharply and relevantly today as they did 2,000 years ago. If you are willing to be stirred and challenged - as the first hearers were - read on.

The author invites you to an exploration of each parable, followed by questions for personal reflection or group discussion.

This book continues the series begun in Exploring and Applying the Parables of Jesus found in the Gospel of Luke. The aim is to explore the well-known parables found only in the gospels of Matthew and Mark, exploring each parable in its original setting, and then seeking to apply its teaching to our current situation in the world of today. The book is not intended to be an academic text, but a book for group or personal consideration. It is offered with the prayer that it might be used of God for the challenging, stirring and building up of his people.
