Listen "Stories of God: Dinner Party Shake Up"
Episode Synopsis
Luke 14: 1 - 24
Jesus is invited to dine at the house of a leader of Pharisees, only to disrupt the evening. It was the Sabbath, and a man with dropsy approaches Jesus for healing—something the religious leaders around the table would’ve considered forbidden work. Jesus heals the man anyway, stunning the dinner guests. He then addresses the guests with two banquet parables designed to expose their pride and self-righteousness.
This message compels each listener to reflect personally: have you truly humbled yourself before God? Do you presume you're secure in God’s kingdom, or do you recognize your deep spiritual need and your dependence on His grace?
