Jesus' Love Stories: Scriptural Insights Into the Spirituality of Christian Loving (Illuminationbooks)

John and Joseph Loya, brothers who serve the Catholic Church as a diocesan priest and a religious priest, respectively, take fifteen of Jesus' most well-known parables: The Prodigal Son, The Publican and the Pharisee, The Good Shepherd and the Lost Sheep, The Generous King and the Fearful, Lazy Steward, etc., and weave a philosophy and theology of love as told - and lived - by Jesus. The book was written in light of and with reference to Pope Benedict XVI's first encyclical, Deus Caritas Est, and includes an annotated bibliography.
