Synopsis

Satire to set your heart on fire.

What if the parables weren’t so well known? Would you still think the same way?

More Not the Parables of Jesus contains another 40 satirical takes on the original parables to snap us out of our over-familiarity and to open our eyes to the truth of the Gospel.

Half tongue-in-cheek, half right between the eyes

Often fun, sometimes poignant, and occasionally painful; these parables reveal our cultural biases, hidden assumptions, and the lies we believe.

Your best laugh now.
Joel Osteen*

‘The perfect indulgence.
Johann Tetzel*

Not the Bible. It’s like the Bible. Only not.

John was born at a very young age with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck. At first, it appeared that no lasting damage had been done, but as he grew it became clear that his sense of humour had been damaged irreparably.

John lives with his family near Oxford, England where daily he wonders how his wife still finds the same jokes funny after more than 20 years of marriage._{* Everything’s true about these statements except the quotes.}

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

John was born at a very young age with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck. At first, it appeared that no lasting damage had been done, but as he grew it became clear that his sense of humour had been damaged irreparably. Not even Bible College, counselling, and prayer ministry has been able to rectify things, so John eagerly awaits the new creation where his humour will be perfected. John also trained as a teacher at Oxford University, but despite this he still refers to himself in the third person. Whilst there, he performed stand-up comedy as part of the Oxford Revue but got tired and has been sitting down at his desk to perform his humour ever since. The Babylon Bee ignores his submissions, and others tell him not to give up the day job. So now, when he’s not wrestling with work-life balance or literally wrestling with his children, he’s wrestling with writing funny words on a page in his cramped study. John lives with his family near Oxford, England where daily he wonders how his wife still finds the same jokes funny after nearly 20 years of marriage.
