The stories in this book often offer a surprise ending, an ironic twist or a reversal, just as in the parables of Jesus. Based on lectionary texts, this collection will assist the lectionary or the free-text preacher. Although created for adults, the stories also appeal to children and youth.John Sumwalt's stories are a treat -- the Gospel comes alive in common life and in regular people, and suddenly we are enchanted by grace. Donald F. Chatfield, Professor of Preaching Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
