This book provides two chapters for each synoptic Gospel. Two introductory chapters additionally situate this book in the history and theology of the parables' interpretation and address questions that preachers have about preaching the parables.

George Pell was a Ballarat boy who studied at Oxford and rose through the Catholic Church ranks to become adviser to Pope Francis and Vatican treasurer.

With the story of the painful and life-changing crisis he experienced in the Church that led him to love the Church more intensely, Fr. Berg Along intertwines the stories of other Catholics who have themselves experienced life-changing hurts but who, in Jesus, found healing. Ultimately, this audiobook is about hope for wounded believers: If you have been hurt in the Church, Jesus can take you on a journey through your wounds, a journey of healing that will make you an even better human being, a better Christian, and a better disciple.

Diese Predigt beschreibt ein echtes Werk der Gnade Gottes im Herzen eines Gläubigen. Um Frieden mit Gott zu haben, müssen wir von unserer Sünde überführt werden – vor allem von der Sünde des Unglaubens – und uns im Glauben auf die Gerechtigkeit Christi stützen. Whitefield wendet dies auf verschiedene Gruppen an: die der wahren Gläubigen, derer, die keinen Frieden haben, und die der Abtrünnigen. Er schließt mit der Aufforderung, im Glauben zu Jesus Christus zu kommen und Ihn um Gnade zu bitten.

"Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass dieser Vers unter allen Bibelversen, die stärkste Aussagekraft hat." Mit diesen Worten beginnt Whitefield seine Auslegung von 1.Korinther 1,30. Er führt uns mit einfachen aber kraftvollen Worten vor Augen, welchen unvorstellbaren Reichtum Gott, der Vater, all jenen gibt, die ihre Hoffnung auf Seine Gnade setzen und die auf Christus, den wahren Erlöser, vertrauen.
