I love that Jesus uses stories to illustrate his points. I always wonder if he's just making them up on the fly, or if he prepared them like a few nights before. It's really great stuff. Such an amazing speaker.
I love verse 43 because it's my ticket into the kingdom of God. Man, I wonder if the Jews had really been obedient to God if I'd be invited to the party or if I'd be stuck out in the cold still. JM
A look into the things I'd like to do, life I'd like to lead, man I'd like to be, items I'd like to avoid, and the adventure that occurs between dream and reality.

Expository Preaching
A friend of mine recently was emailing me about how much he enjoys expository preaching now that he has sat under it for a length of time. I'm not much on it, but I've never really experienced it, unless it was when I was a kid. I think I'm going to try to listen to some podcasts to get a feel for what it might be like. I guess my big motivation for doing this is to see if it is a speaking strategy that I could adapt to my style. I'm extremely narrative and enjoy being topical, but definitely see the frustrations that it brings. JM
