Preaching Parables to Postmoderns

Stiller argues that Jesus' parables, through theirnarrative, personal, and oral dimensions and reversal ofexpectations, provide unique access to Christianity for thosewhose experience and hopes we label "postmodern."

Aligning contemporary scholarship with today's culturalassumptions, Stiller offers preachers a working knowledge ofpostmodern sensibilities, an understanding of the parablegenre, an analysis of ten parables, and a sample of how onemight preach them effectively.
