Narrative or story preaching has called attention to Jesus' parables, since many of those parables are stories. Is there a preacher-especially on one who uses the lectionary for preaching-who does not preach on a parable from time to time? This book conducts an exegesis of scripture, provides context for each passage, suggests contemporary applications-with questions that challenge-and gives preachers sample openings fro the composition of a sermon/homily.
