Publisher's summary

In Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, pastor and theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. reveals the unique power of Jesus' parables for today's listeners, showing how they announce the kingdom, communicate both judgment and grace, and call every human heart toward transformation in the light of God's love.

"He who has ears, let him hear…" The Prodigal Son. The Good Samaritan. The parable of the mustard seed. The stories Jesus told during his earthly ministry are packed with such memorable images and characters that they now permeate our culture's popular imagination. But what if their familiarity has muted their powerful message, causing today's readers and listeners to miss their ability to shock and transform?

In Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, renowned pastor and theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. unlocks the power of Jesus' parables for listeners today. Jesus perfected the art of telling parables—short stories with a surprising twist and an explosive message that confronted his readers with surprising (and often uncomfortable) truths about the human heart and the kingdom of heaven. But two thousand years later, modern readers and listeners may not grasp the cultural and historical context that made these stories so compelling for Jesus' original audience. Mohler brings Jesus' stories to life, uncovering the context and allowing listeners to hear these stories in all their shocking, paradigm-shifting power.

Listeners will:

  • feel a deeper connection with Jesus by stepping into the shoes of his first-century followers and hearing with fresh ears the stories he shared with his closest followers;
  • gain a deeper understanding of the gospel through Jesus' own words; and
  • see the parables in a new light, experiencing—perhaps for the first tim—their ability to draw people into Jesus' kingdom.
  • Every parable Jesus told contains judgment and grace. They hold up a mirror that reveals the human heart—and invites everyone to welcome Jesus' kingdom and reign.

Will you have ears to hear their vital message?

Concise precise summary of the parables

Biblically truthful and strong. The only one suggestion I have is for the author to read his own book. This as a personal touch. However, the person who does read does a nice job.
