Jesus sets our expectations high when he says parables reveal information kept secret from the foundation of the world. Although the Lord's parables are two thousand years old, they remain an essential way God communicates with believers. Modern Christians did not eyewitness Jesus' ministry; however, the Bible provides the Lord's sermons in writing. Anticipating only general moral principles or practical life lessons undervalues a parable's full strength. What Might This Parable Be provides a wealth of organized sermon material and teachings for anyone interested in what Jesus has to say. The book inspires thinking, encouragement, and dialogue.
