Description
Storytelling is a tool used by Jesus to address the disciples, the crowd, the religious authorities and many individuals who approached him. These stories or parables are not randomly drawn from the daily experiences of Palestinian culture but told with a purpose. What then was the purpose of the parables of Jesus? How did the parables function in the teaching of Jesus? How were they presented in the Gospels? How can we be awakened anew to the radical message of the parables as followers of Jesus today?
In Jesus the Storyteller, Rev Dr Lim Kar Yong not only guides the readers to a deeper understanding of the parables of Jesus, but also offers contextualised homiletical ideas for pastors and preachers, and provides probing questions for further reflection and study.
Author: Rev. Dr. Lim Kar Yong is a Lecturer of New Testament Studies, Director of Postgraduate Studies, and Director of the Centre for Bible Engagement at Seminari Theoloji Malaysia. He also lectures at other seminaries in the region. He is an ordained minister with the Anglican Diocese of West Malaysia. He also sits the Board of World Vision Malaysia since 2016.
