10 MINUTES MORE

In all this, Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables; indeed, he would never speak to them except in parables. Matthew 13:3410 Minutes More is the sequel to the author’s previous book 10 Minutes. As in the first volume, we are again invited to take 10 minutes to read a chapter in the book. The chapter will introduce a Bible story that will lead to another 10 minutes of reflection, prayer and sharing.It is an approach that reflects the storytelling that was at the heart of the life and ministry of Jesus himself who not only told stories but whose entire life, from birth to death, became story. His stories, his parables, all display how he shares every aspect of life with us - joys, sorrows, pain, suffering.10 Minutes More belongs within that Jesus tradition. By reflecting - even for a few minutes - on a gospel story, we connect its profound message with our own lives. We allow its teaching to help us make sense and purpose of our own life journeys in the ancient witness of the gospel.
