Jesus reached out to us using parables - and we can do the same. Have you ever said to someone: 'That reminds me of a story'? This second collection of beautifully illustrated short stories offer precious nuggets of personal encouragement and help us reach out to others with the truths of God's kingdom.
Reviews:
I enjoy reading James Webb, not just because he is a gifted and imaginative storyteller, but because he provides nourishing soul food for the journeys we all make through the deserts of life. With his creative imagination he provokes a range of emotions in the reader and I invite you to step inside and be prepared to find something for which your soul has cried out.

There are very few books I read that can make me laugh and think profoundly at the same time. This book however is one of them. As a child I used to watch Tales of the Unexpected and loved the twists at the end - James' book easily surpasses them. It is very easy to read and yet worthwhile at the same time as each story contains spiritual truths ( which aren't at all preachy and sometimes not obvious! ). This is a book you have to try - you won't regret it.

Show moreJames has had a variety of interesting learning experiences in his life, some from being a Baptist minister in the UK and then some from being a member of Cornerstone Community, a mission and discipleship community in Australia. He fancies himself as something of a storyteller, and this book is his second attempt to put some of the things he's learnt into words. James currently lives in Canterbury with his wife and five (yes, five) children.
