	Description:		March is Jesus Month on Let's Talk About It. During the month of March, Dr. Shepherd will introduce new ideas about Christology from his upcoming (Unity) book as his distinguished panel searches for ideas about Jesus that make sense to a postmodern world. This week's topic is the Parables. Why did Luke alone tell the stories of the Good Samaritan and Prodigal Son? What sense can anyone make of the bizarre parable, told by Matthew and Luke, about the demon that leaves a man's consciousness but returns later with seven devils worse than himself? And why did Jesus speak in parables rather than long ethical discourses in the manner of the Greeks or thundering sermons, like the Hebrew prophets? LTAI 's panel of scholars and students of the Bible will ask these and other questions as they consider "The Parables for Postmodern Skeptics."
