Fleming, Don - Parables and Pictures

Jesus used parables to challenge his hearers and provoke a response. He wanted them to think and, more importantly, to act. Parables and Pictures take a fresh look at Jesus' teachings and highlights the challenges they bring in the modern world.

This is the 2nd book in a five book series that has 35 1 page articles along with 35 color photos.

Each of these 5 Pictorial books have 35 full-page colour plates, accompanied by 35 one-page articles that are both informative and inspirational. The articles are an explanatory comment on the biblical text, written with a practical up-to-date relevance that makes the books suitable for a range of uses, from easy-to-read reference materials to attractive gift books.

I will be working on the remaining books in the series. Others include:

• Following Jesus http://www.wordmodul...ollowing-jesus/
  
• Going Places with Paul
  
• Bible Lands, Then and Now http://www.wordmodul...s-then-and-now/
