Luke 23: Is it too late to believe?

Eli: Is there a deadline on believing, and did you miss it?

Eli: Fair worry. Others are years ahead, and you're only just asking.

Eli: Jesus told a story about workers hired at different hours.

Eli: The five o'clock hires worked one hour and got full pay.

Eli: One scholar says the point is grace: given freely, not earned.

Eli: It's been called a difficult parable to interpret.

Eli: Luke's Gospel adds a real moment: a criminal beside Jesus.

Eli: He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.” Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Eli: He'd admitted he earned his sentence, yet he asked anyway.

Eli: Today's a good day to read Luke's story of Jesus.

Eli: A local church has real people who'll talk it through.
