Synopsis
Jesus’ parables can turn your life upside down . . . on purpose. Stories of whiny workers, a roadside rescue, a shocking servant, bewildered bridesmaids. From the first to the twenty-first century, people have heard Jesus' words and had their directions reversed, perspectives altered, and lives inverted.
Unusual twists. Unexpected endings. Woven into the fabric of every narrative are pearls of wisdom waiting to be discovered—and lived out. So forget what you think you know. Find out what Jesus really said. And brace yourself— you’re about to be inverted!
