8 Surprises and Stories by Jesus (Learn About Jesus) - Softcover

Nothing captures the imagination like a good story; and Jesus was the master storyteller. His stories used humour, pathos, drama and the element of surprise to communicate deep truths about God. Jesus used stories to confront and comfort. He used a "twist" to catch his hearers off guard. It was hard for people to pin Jesus down; he kept doing and saying the unexpected. He is still the same today. Bev Boissery and Bron Short take us through some of these stories and the surprising way Jesus related to people he met. So often Jesus turned convention on its head. This book invites us to explore 8 Surprises and Stories in Jesus' life, to engage with his words and reflect on our response to this remarkable man, Jesus Ideal for people who want to know about the Christian faith, or who are new to their faith. A LEARN ABOUT JESUS book.
