Take the Lowest Place

Take the Lowest Place

Jesus is invited to a banquet at a Pharisee's house. This is not a casual gathering, it’s a public, status-laden event filled with religious and social elites, and where you sat revealed your importance. Jesus sees right through the scramble for status. The parable He tells isn’t just etiquette advice, it’s a critique of a system that runs on self-promotion.
