Review: "Stories with Intent offers pastors and students a guide to Jesus' parables. Klyne Snodgrass explores the context in which these stories were told, the purpose they had in Jesus' message, and the ways they have been interpreted by the church and modern scholarship. While holding a consciously evangelical approach, Snodgrass deals throughout with a broad spectrum of opinions and interpretations." ~ Jacket.
