<p>Dr. Clyde Cutrer shares humorous and poignant stories new and old in A Walk through the Bible in Modern Parables. He designed the book as an introduction to the Old and New Testaments. He outlines the development of central themes and key ideas, using humor and story as ways to illuminate these themes for the reader. </p>
<p>In a chapter on Hosea called “Unexpected Developments,”Cutrer retells a story of misunderstanding and forgiveness. The mother of a groom supplies the wedding cake for the reception. She chooses a passage from 1 John 4:18 (. . .perfect love casts out fear. . .”) for the top of the cake. Yet the baker mistakenly inscribes the cake with John 4:18, “You have had five husbands, and he whom you now have is not your husband.” Cutrer uses the story to point out that misunderstandings can cause different outcomes than one might have expected, and yet, love is the constant--a theme echoing the message of the book of Hosea. There are many similar stories throughout the book that will delight and instruct the reader who wants an overview of the Bible.</p>
