Thursday, February 11 at 7:30pm: St. John Book Discussion Group – “Short Stories by Jesus: The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi”

short_stories_bt_jesusThis month’s selection is Short Stories by Jesus: The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi by Amy-Jill Levine, University Professor of New Testament and Jewish Studies, Vanderbilt Divinity School. Professor Levine writes: “Jesus was requiring that his disciples do more than listen: he was asking them to think as well. What makes the parables mysterious, or difficult, is they challenge us to look into the hidden aspects of our own values, our own lives.”
