The Party of God: Abundant Honour at Christ’s Table - Rev Bosco Peters

Luke 14:1,7-14Jesus often spoke of God’s reign in the language of meals and parties, where everyone is welcome and honour is redefined. In a culture where honour was thought to be limited and gained at another’s expense, Jesus revealed God’s honour as abundant, freely given especially to the marginalised. The Eucharist continues this vision: a meal where status, reciprocity, and self-promotion are overturned by grace. At God’s party, we are called to humility, generosity, and manakitanga — lifting others up without fear of losing our own place.
