Currently teaching a group of sixty ladies a 30
week in depth study in Matthew which has twenty parables, I have a close friend that just doesn’t connect
with parables. I asked to review this resource searching for insights into the Parables of Jesus, I was thrilled to find a
chapter on 1 Corinthians 13. Because next years bible study is 1 and 2 Corinthians. Chapter 6 in this book has thirteen pages to teach this famous
chapter heard at wedding and quoted as the Love chapter. First is a breakdown overview
of the passage in a way that is easy to understand and memorize: Gifts Without Love;
the Definition of Love- what love is and is not, and what love does; and Love
Never Fails. The next page is a three column chart listing the specific
characteristics of love from chapter 13, the definition of that term and
several scripture references in the Bible. A similar chart tells us what love is
not. Other pages identify positive qualities as well as negative qualities of
love and example from scriptures. This is the best resource I have found for
this often referenced chapter of the Bible. Chapter 7 on the Twenty Third Psalm with an equally thorough teaching. Though only a couple paragraphs for each of the thirty-nine parables their is much good information on how to study a parable and interpret it's meaning. This is a excellent good resource for accessing all the parables of Christ. Facts, maps and timelines of the lives of Joseph, David, and Esther are included in this 130 page book .This resource was given to me for my honest review by Rose Publishing.
