Generals Eat Last

Jesus goes to a dinner party and tells a story about a dinner party. Very meta. Very Luke. The RevCast crew closes out the Show Up series with the parable of the great banquet, just in time for World Communion Sunday. A host sets the table. The A-list sends regrets: new land, five yoke of oxen, a brand-new spouse. So the invitation goes out to the streets, the lanes and everyone nobody else thought to invite. Along the way the clerical cohort covers who eats first in the Army versus the Navy, what "compel" actually means, why a church looking for "people who can pay the bills" has missed the point, and how one small acknowledgment can stay with someone for decades. Plus, Mike digs a box of podcast question cards out of storage, and the panel takes on a would-you-rather that no pastor should ever have to answer. There's still room at the table. Your Hot Pocket, however, is getting cold. Music from #Uppbeat ⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/doug-organ/code-switching⁠ License code: ACLEIQKGDLNBXD8L
