Sermon: The Parable of the Workers

Sunday, October 7, 2007

The Parable of the Workers is one of the more controversial parables in the Bible. At first glance, it appears that the Master is unjust--everyone who worked in the field regardless of the number of hours worked for received the same compensation. In today's world, and even in the context of Jesus' society, it appears that those who worked for 6 or 8 hours were unfairly treated because they received the same amount as those who only worked for an hour.

Listen to this sermon about my interpretation of this parable and how we can apply it to our society today.
