Publisher's Synopsis
Parables were easy for Jesus's hearers to relate to, because they dealt with practical, down-to-earth matters. Superficially at least, they are easy for modern readers too. Megan McKenna, in this book, enables readers to ask basic questions, pointing to pivotal truths, challenging and entertaining.;Chapters deal with John the Baptist as the first arrow of God, the hidden treasure, the sower, the first and the last, the good shepherd, the widow and the unjust judge, the talents, the prodigal son, and finally, Jesus, the last arrow and the archer. Megan McKenna is the author of "Not Counting Women and Children".
