The Storytelling God

Throw away your flannelgraphs... The prodigal son. The good Samaritan. The treasure hidden in a field. Most of us have heard Jesus’s parables before. Yet if these stories strike us as merely sweet, heartwarming, or sentimental, we can be sure we’ve misread them. In The Storytelling God, pastor Jared Wilson helps us to see how Jesus’s parables reveal profound spiritual truths about God, humanity, the world, and the future. Discarding the notion that Christ’s parables are nothing more than moralistic fables, this book highlights how each one is designed to drive us to Jesus in awe, need, faith, and worship. Offers fresh insights into Jesus’s familiar, yet often misunderstood, parables Explains the biblical text in clear, easy-to-grasp language that engages the heart and the mind Wilson explores New Testament parables such as the pearl of great price, the wise builder, the good steward, the lost coin, the prodigal son, the good Samaritan, the wedding feast, the sower and the soil, and the fig tree
