Jesus spoke to people whose "hearts have grown dull, and their ears hard of hearing" -- like today's churchgoers who think they know what the preacher is going to say before the sermon begins. These sermons use parable and paradox, narrative and humor, imagination and solid biblical scholarship to tell the good news people don't expect to hear.
(from author's Preface)
Sermons in this book are based on lections for the middle third of the season after Pentecost.
Sermon titles include:
Prayer and Compassion Fatigue -- Matthew 14:13-21
Love Without Limits -- Matthew 15:10-28
Good News: Life Is Not Fair -- Matthew 20:1-16
Why Do We Ignore Warning Signs? -- Matthew 21:33-46
