Preaching The Parables Series 3 Cycle B

$18.95

esus used his parables to teach ordinary people with common problems; yet because these simple stories contain universal truths that transcend time and culture, they still strike a powerful chord and provide us with important lessons about God’s kingdom. Preaching The Parables offers a gold mine of informative background material on each of the seven parables appearing in Cycle B of the Revised Common Lectionary. Dallas Brauninger probes these familiar texts with a fresh, imaginative viewpoint, revealing what they tell us about God and inviting further reflection on what they mean for modern living.

Preaching The Parables is much more than just a sermon preparation resource — it’s also an excellent bible study tool, exploring questions like:

? What dimension of the soul that needs tending does the parable address?

? What is the parable’s surprise?

? What moves us into hope?

? How does its point become obvious?

? How do its characters relate to us today?

Brauninger identifies points of action, examines significant terms, and engages in imaginary exchanges with a variety of characters. The complete text of each parable is also included, along with an analysis highlighting similarities and differences in parallel passages. And there’s a convenient “word study” index for locating key concepts from parables in all three lectionary cycles.
