Tell Me the Stories of Jesus is by Albert Mohler. Al Mohler is the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He hosts The Briefing and "Thinking in Public". This book is a Christian living book. The parables were written with an illustration. Jesus wanted the audience to think about what He was saying and then move to recollect on the deeper meaning within the parables. He wanted the audience to think about where their heart is and to apply the parables to their life. If the meaning is given in a straight forward way it can be easy to not think about your life because the meaning is given to the audience and they do not have to pause and think where Jesus is coming from. The parables are creative. . This book gives great background for each of the parables. It is very personable. This book is well written. It is a great book for any Christian and for any pastor. Thank you for netgalley , the publisher and the author for allowing me to read and review this well written book. This book was given to me to review.
