Bread for Sharing: Luke 14:7-14 (Parable of the Great Banquet)
Jesus told his followers how to participate in and host the perfect meal. He instructed us to approach gatherings with humility and to invite people who could never possibly invite us in return. Jesus knew that when we only invite our closest, most powerful, or wealthiest guests, we miss out on the blessings that come with sharing what we have with those who appreciate it most.
