In Parable Church, pastor and author Mike Burnette unpacks unique insights from Jesus' parables that can help us understand and experience the full, transformative life in community we are divinely intended to live.
Christ never actually told us how to "do church". Yes, he had a lot to say about the church, but what he did say was mostly unrelated to stylistic issues or contextual trends. He never spoke about its leadership hierarchies or the pros and cons of denominational fellowships or the types of music. And yet, much of our time and energy as leaders and shepherds is consumed by chasing after tips, tricks, and secrets to "grow" churches.
While we've tended to focus on church growth through strategies, programs, and metric-based insights, Christ always focused on the heart and the values of the Father, the values that actually change lives and increase the spiritual health of his people.
By digging deeply into three important parables - the Parable of the Two Sons, the Parable of the Sower, and the Parable of the Talents - Parable Church weaves together personal narratives, unique cultural observations, and compellingly fresh biblical insights to paint a picture of something unimaginably greater than what most people think of when they think of Jesus' Church.
Although Jesus never gave us directions for church, he did, through his parables, reveal what we should experience in our communities together - he revealed the culture of his kingdom.

What truly resonates is the raw honesty with which the author reveals his doubts and the human tendency to second-guess even the most sacred commitments. Yet, it is in these very moments of vulnerability that his eventual unwavering loyalty to God shines brightest. The book is a testament to the enduring power of faith, demonstrating that even after detours and misgivings, returning to and embracing one's spiritual purpose can lead to profound peace and fulfillment. This is a must-read for anyone navigating their own spiritual journey or seeking inspiration in the face of life's uncertainties.
GOD's way of making sure we are where we are Kent to be.
