Episode Synopsis

The Gospel of Luke, Chapter 16, verses 1-8Today Jesus, in speaking to his disciples (i.e. you and I), tells a parable with which I have always struggled.  Not because I don't like it.  But because I'm not certain of where Jesus is inviting us.  And so, I take it in two different directions - and invite you to take it wherever the Spirit may move within you.  Effectively, Jesus tells a parable of a dishonest steward who is commended for being shrewd.  So what are we to make of that?Well, for one thing - a This is Spinal Tap reference (the movie whose title I can't recall during the pod)!  Can't go wrong there.  Thankfully it wasn't "S*** Sandwich!"
