A well-told story can be motivational and inspirational, especially when it's framed in familiar language that everyone can relate to. Constance Berg draws on her gift for storytelling to deliver modern parables that reach across cultural, class, gender, and social lines. Berg's collection of tales illustrating biblical passages from Cycle A of the Revised Common Lectionary will touch your soul. Her stories are clear and easily understood -- not only by those in the pew, but by anyone looking for insightful devotional reading. Constance Berg is a storyteller. Not too saccharine, not too neat, her stories have the ring of real life -- and real hope. Her writing is as strong as her faith, and the two make a blessed combination.
