Reviews

[Jane Riordan · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Bible isn't called The Living Word for no reason; it is surprising and joyous to realise just how relevant Parables can be in the modern world, particularly if read with a 'study' guid beside them.

[Carol Russell · Rating 4 out of 5]

This study guide led to iteresting discussions with our study group. Great new insights into many of the New Testament parables of Jesus.

[Linda Black · Rating 5 out of 5]

It was a good book that helps us to understand the parables. I thought the questions were great to get to understand the parables.

[Janet Hamilton]

Completed with a small group of ladies. Book provided good discussion material.
