For adults seeking deeper understanding of parables

Helps you rediscover the relevance of Jesus' teachings

You will apply timeless wisdom to your daily life

Truth Missiles reveals the powerful relevance of Jesus' parables for today's challenges.

Jesus' parables aren't just stories - they are truth missiles, designed to challenge, confront, and transform lives.

Many people learned the parables in Sunday school but never revisited them as adults. Yet these short, powerful stories were Jesus' primary way of teaching, packed with profound biblical wisdom and deep spiritual truths. In his new and always engaging book "Truth Missiles", pastor and bible teacher Peter JR Smith uses both his biblical understanding and real world experience to explore these timeless lessons, not only sharing the meaning of the parables, but showing how they remain just as explosive and relevant today as when Jesus first spoke them.

Through clear explanations, fresh insights, and modern-day "Not-a-Parables", across 33 short, bite-sized chapters, this book will bring the parables powerfully to life, helping you understand Jesus' teachings, revealing the original message of his parables with clarity, and all in a way that speaks directly to your everyday challenges.What You'll Discover in This Book:

  • The real meaning behind Jesus' most famous parables-and why they still matter today.
  • How these stories reveal God's Kingdom, justice, and grace.
  • Practical ways to apply Jesus' teachings to your life and faith.
  • Modern-day retellings that make the parables more relatable than ever.
  • Deep but accessible insights-perfect for personal study or group discussion.

Who Is This Book For?

  • Christians who want to grow deeper in their faith.
  • Bible study groups looking for engaging discussion material.
  • Seekers who are curious about Jesus' teachings.
  • Anyone who feels stuck in their faith and wants a fresh perspective.
