Have You Ever Considered the Fiction of Jesus?
And by that, I mean the short, fictitious stories he told as he traveled from village to village. Stories about…
A generous boss who paid all his employees the same wage, no matter what time they clocked into work.
A man who threw a grand dinner banquet but welcomed a bunch of nobodies to crash the party.
A despised stranger who stopped to help an injured man while others looked the other way.
Nobody Left Out: The Fiction of Jesus is a 40-day devotional that looks at eight of Jesus' parables. These stories are not fables with simple moral lessons. They are surprising and sometimes puzzling invitations to see the world differently. Through them, Jesus gives us a window into the beauty of God's Kingdom.
The eight parables we'll walk through together are:
Parable I: The Vineyard Workers Parable II: The Unforgiving Servant Parable III: The Great Banquet Parable IV: The Sower Parable V: The Lost Coin Parable VI: The Talents Parable VII: The Rich Fool Parable VIII: The Good Samaritan
In short, daily readings, we'll use our imaginations to engage with these tales. The more we explore the fiction of Jesus, the more we'll grasp how real God's Kingdom truly is.
Whether you've been following Jesus your whole life or have never cracked open a Bible, Nobody Left Out: The Fiction of Jesus will remind you that in God's Kingdom, there's always a seat at the table….
He doesn't want anyone left out!
