Jesus The Story Teller The life and ministry of Jesus seen through the lens of Easter faith are revealed to us in the gospels opening our hearts to follow the Way. Passed down through the years and shared by prophets of God from a variety of backgrounds all giving a willing nod. Having said, "Yes" to God’s Spirit Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, gathered with wisdom and knowledge traditions and stories passed on. They reveal the character of Jesus as a teacher, preacher and friend, a miracle worker and story teller sharing parables of every day events. Jesus becomes the One proclaimed teaching love of God and neighbor too giving new life and revealing God’s reign through his reaching out and radical views. The narrative stories of meeting Jesus share many stimulating themes where he touched individuals and crowds with His saving love and spirituality. May all who study the gospels seek with prayerful open hearts recognizing and accepting the challenges that these holy pages impart. - - - - - - - - Written with prayerful respect for the gospels.
