Preaching kingdom parable in the postmodern context

Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Doctor of Ministry Thesis-Project Abstract: 'This thesis project sets out to correct what the writer believes is a shortcoming of the Christian faith. Christians are unable to identify the central message of Jesus - the Kingdom of God. To rectify this problem the thesis project sets out to preach a series of sermons from the parables to inform and transform postmodern audiences about the Kingdom of God. The parables of Jesus are studied to further investigate what Jesus taught about the Kingdom of God. An understanding of postmodemism is explored to challenge preachers to understand their contexts and to contextualize parables to the postmodern audience today.
