WHO BELONGS AT THE TABLE

1.   What are the themes/emphases of the gospel of Luke?

2.   How does today’s parable fit or not fit with those major themes?

3.   Why does Jesus show up at so many meals in the gospel of Luke?

4.   What comes to mind when you think about God as host of a party or dinner?

5.   Why is it scandalous for the poor, crippled, blind and lame to be the guests at the party of the wealthy host?

6.   What would it look like if our congregation had the same attitude as Jesus did about cultural definitions of “success and status”?

7.   Who are the outcasts in our culture?
