Dear Theophilus: A Seat at the Table

Luke 14.1–24

In Luke 14.1–24, Jesus exposes the danger of religious comfort and passive resistance to God. Through a Sabbath healing, a parable about pride, and a story of rejected invitations, Jesus confronts a deeper question: do we want the Kingdom of God—or just the benefits of being near it?
