Parables are some of the most familiar stories in the Bible, yet their interpretations and applications are anything but uniform. Scandalous Stories is a "sort" of commentary on these familiar stories that are steeped in God's offensive grace and loving mercy for sinners and saints alike.
In this wonderful and user-friendly volume, Price and Sorensen breath fresh life into even the most familiar of Christ’s parables – no easy feat! Their rock solid grasp of God’s grace so readily offered to the (continually) underserving shines through in every sentence and story. Highly recommended. David Zahl, Director of Mockingbird Ministries
It’s so easy to read Jesus’ parables and think, “That’s what I need to do to get my act together.” In typical fashion, we make them about us and our glory story. And, as usual, we’re missing the point. The parables aren’t primarily about us but rather about the great mercy of our loving Father who is drawing all the wrong (and blessedly right) people to Himself. This wonderful book will help you see that. I highly recommend it! Elyse Fitzpatrick, author of Finding the Love of Jesus from Genesis to Revelation
Scandalous Stories sheds new light on Jesus’ parables, offering a fresh and exciting encounter with the Savior’s stories of surprising saints and offensive grace. Matt Popovits, Pastor and author of Tough Call
