Yet again, the Pharisees are trying to trap Jesus in the law. What better place to trap him in the law then where societal rules and norms are most scrutinized: a dinner party.

Jesus flips the script on the Pharisees by telling them a parable about a wedding banquet that shines a spotlight on how their behavior—at the very dinner party they invited Jesus to—is firmly self-serving and ultimately sinful.

You're going to want to hear how Lars Olson breaks down meal practices and lifts up Jesus' forgiving Word.

Kiri, Adam and Mason ask:

How do you exalt or humble yourself?How has this advice held up for 2,000 years?Are parables always stories?
