"What if the king in Jesus’ parable isn’t God?
     What if his son isn’t Jesus?
What if the first-invited guests aren’t the Jews?
     What if the forced-in guests aren’t grateful to be there?
     What if the man with the wrong clothes on isn’t a sinner?
What if people have been reading this parable wrong all these years,
     because they have been reading it through the lens of a wrong view of God?
What if God isn’t a violent dictator after all?"

- Simon Woodman preaching on the parable of the Wedding Banquet from Matthew 22.1-14, on Sunday 12th March 2023.
