Everyone loves a good story. But the parables of Jesus are a special kind of story. They sneak up on us, catching us off guard. The familiar suddenly takes an unexpected twist, and we find our secret thoughts exposed in the healing light of Jesus. In this guide, John White, author of the best-selling book "The Fight" helps us explore twelve of the greatest stories ever told.
This revised LifeGuide Bible study features questions for starting group discussions and for meeting God in personal reflection, together with expanded leader's notes and a new Now or Later section in each study.
