Proper 20.C.25
Luke 16:1-13

I suspect that our Lord occasionally told parables not simply because he enjoyed telling them; but also because there were moments when he was deeply frustrated. The Parable of the Unjust Steward strikes me as such a story.
Proper 17.C.25
Luke 15:1-10
Melanie L. McCarley
Few people set out with the intention of getting lost. It’s just something that happens—generally when we’re not paying attention. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that for most of us, we feel as though we are moving merrily along until something causes us to pause in our tracks. We stop, lift up our heads, look around, and notice—we have no earthly (or heavenly) idea as to where we are.
