Bestselling author Kyle Idleman looks at four key metaphors from Jesus' teachings and reveals how they can impact our daily lives and change the way we think and act.
As human beings, we think in pictures. For this reason, there is incredible power in a metaphor. A few words can paint a picture of an image that has deep application and far-reaching implications. A good metaphor reveals new understandings and offers enlightening perspectives. It provides clarity and direction for life.
Jesus understood the incredible power contained in metaphors. Throughout the Gospels, we find him using such powerful word-pictures to disciple his followers. His teachings are full of images that serve to not only reveal his identity and character but also to enable us to know ourselves and how we can relate to him. For when we know who we are... we know what to do. Jesus' metaphors deliver direction for moving reminders.
In this study, bestselling author Kyle Idleman unlocks four of these key metaphors. He reveals how Jesus said we are to "be the branch" and abide in him. We are to learn, grow, and turn the world upside down, but also realize that apart from Christ... we can do nothing. We are to "catch the wind"—a metaphor for the Holy Spirit—by following God's lead, even when it brings us to a different place than we were expecting. We are to "abandon the boat" and operate out of courage rather than what is comfortable in the moment. And we are to "wreck the roof" and take risks of compassion that will make a difference in this world.
