Today's verse is Luke 14:15-18 with Kim Matthews.
When one of those at the table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is the one who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God.” Jesus replied: “A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’ “But they all alike began to make excuses."
"Father, thank you for inviting us to your most amazing feast. You are our magnificent obsession; we open our hearts and lives to you. Help us to follow you faithfully and invite all who will hear to your banquet so that your house will be full."
