Luke’s gospel includes several parables that don’t appear in the other gospels. This is our chance to discover the God who hides, seeks, finds, and is found in an ongoing quest for reconciliation with humankind.

We’ll read Psalm 27 each week, in different translations each week, to “dwell in the text,” learning how God seeks and finds, is sought and found.


The Parables of Lost Things. Take a look at those parables in the middle of Luke that aren't in the other gospels. They're strange and lovely. The Parables of Lost Things in Luke 15 are among our favorites, for good reason. What happened to that young man? Where is his mama? Psalm 27; Luke 15:1-31.


The Parable of the Dishonest Steward.

"You cannot serve God and money."
You cannot serve God and race privilege.
You cannot serve God and class privilege.
You cannot serve God and cis-het privilege.
You cannot serve God and male privilege.
You cannot serve God and patriotism.

But what if, in the service of God, we could make any of those things serve us? Psalm 27; Luke 16:1-13.


The Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man.  

God does not want your piety. Father Abraham said so. So what *does* God want? Psalm 27; Luke 16:19-31.


The Praying Parables.  

Jay the Intern, formerly known as Jay the Actuary, has some things to say about widows who press their claims... and who, in the end, sits down at Jesus’s table. Dang it, Jay! Psalm 27; Luke 18:1-14.
