Mary Bullock Carter's New Book "Layman's (Laywoman's) Study of the Parables of Jesus Christ" is a Clever Guide for Anyone Interested in Learning About Jesus' Parables
New York, NY, October 6, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Mary Bullock Carter, a dedicated Sunday School teacher and inspired author, has completed her most recent book “Layman's (Laywoman's) Study of The Parables of Jesus Christ”: a researched and well delivered study of the teachings Jesus gave the disciples to prepare them for their journey ahead.
As an adult Sunday school class teacher, Mary occasionally asked a “trivia” question just to keep everyone on their toes and to give them something to look for on their own. One morning the question was “How many parables did Jesus teach?” Mary says it was the beginning of a righteous quest. She shares, “I knew there was a list in the back of my Bible, so I thought it would be an easy question. Boy was I wrong! Each student it seemed had a different list! First off, I wanted to be able to give them an accurate answer. Second, it just took a life of its own, and I felt I had to have the answer! So I began this study. The more I studied, the more I was convinced I was supposed to teach these special words of Our Christ.”
Published by Fulton Books, Mary Bullock Carter’s book is the product of an inspired quest to search out and identify all of the parables as told by Jesus. The truths that Jesus taught during His ministry are timeless in the sense of being universally true, but are not timeless in the sense of being fully understandable out of their historical context.
It is the desire of the Lord for his followers to understand, to discuss and study, to think about His word.
The goal of this delightful work is to take the parables and explain them in more understandable terms and references. It is the belief of the author that all of the information available is necessary to learn, so she has attempted here to collect it for the readers to form opinions and develop knowledge and wisdom. God never expected you to live to a certain standard without his help. He has told us clearly how to accomplish it. All we have to do is study his word.
Readers who wish to experience this inspiring work can purchase “Layman's (Laywoman's) Study of The Parables of Jesus Christ” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
