Product Info

Jesus was passionate about getting his message across.

We can see his frustration as even his closest followers struggled to get it: "You of little faith, why are you talking among yourselves about having no bread? Do you still not understand.... How is it you don’t understand that I was not talking to you about bread?" (Matthew 16: 8,9,11)

To remedy their lack of understanding, Jesus used props and storylines drawn from everyday life. Things that were culturally relevant. Stories that true faith-seekers could understand and relate to.

This begs a question: If Jesus were telling these stories to us today, here, and now, would he not realize that we are unfamiliar with the way of life of a first-century, middle eastern agricultural society?

Of course, he would. So, surely, he would create and relate stories rooted in the 21st-century? In the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, he’d find similar cultural touchpoints, so keen is he that all grasp his message and have an opportunity to respond to his claims. He would draw upon modern-day commerce, entertainment, media, technology, sport, medicine, and social protocols, and he would use them as physical, everyday analogies and storylines to communicate his eternal, spiritual themes.

He would keep the themes and messaging of the stories unchanged. But he would wire his words into today’s world. This is the authors' purpose in writing this book: Keeping the Stories of Jesus Alive!
