Parables are a type of weaponized dis-course that knock the sensitive listener off-course and onto a radically new one. They tactically confront us with disturbing truths we might otherwise miss, and bring to light what otherwise lies in darkness. At turns funny, poignant, irreverent, and shocking they cut into us with surgical precision, reaching deep into the hidden recesses of our soul, operating on those parts of our being that more direct speech can’t touch.
Over the years I’ve written dozens of parables and collected hundreds more, deploying them in both my books and public presentations. In this intimate event I’ll be offering some of my favorites along with some reflections and conversation.
Everyone will receive a limited edition J.T.C. styled parable called “The Rapture”.
