The Art of Parables by Charles McCollough

This book appeared unannounced on my desk last week.  Serendipity?  A gift from the universe?  I don’t know but it seemed timely, given David's and Susan’s great sermons on the parables. 
McCollough, an American theologian and artist, has not only cast 33 parables in a new light, he has cast each in clay, with pictures included in the book.  Strangely, he looks at the parables as they might have been in first century Palestine, exactly as Susan challenged us to do one Sunday. 
A CD is included, to help us take this leap in understanding. 
Many thanks to whoever dropped this book on my desk.
