Sermon Brainwave #1106: Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost - October 11, 2026
The parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew 22:1-14 is one of the toughest texts preachers face.
Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Cody Sanders explore it for the 20th Sunday after Pentecost, October 11, 2026. They examine Jesus' anger at religious leaders and the wide-open invitation to both good and bad. They also explain why preachers don't need to tie a parable up neatly. Next, they explore Isaiah 25's feast, the golden calf in Exodus 32, Psalm 23, and Philippians 4.
