Jesus the Storyteller

“Debate has ensued through the centuries about the best title for Jesus. Should we refer to him as Lord or Christ or Son of Man or Son of God? Which title is best? Maybe we need to remember Jesus as the Storyteller, one who threw common, real-life stories next to eternal, spiritual truths. And what lessons Jesus taught!”

HARBOUR

Brian Harbour applies the stories of Jesus, which are eternally relevant, in fresh ways for Christians of the 21st century who want to live by the truths Jesus presented in the 1st century. Through the use of stories and commentary, Harbour examines 16 of Jesus’ stories, focusing on the central truths of the parables and their application to Christian living. The stories in this book can be remembered, retold, preached, and shared by Jesus’ disciples today. And for those who have been called to instruct and inspire contemporary Christians, preaching resources are provided on some of the richest sections of the Gospels.
