Honour, Humility & Hosts

May 31, 2026 | Luke 14.7-14 | Rob Collis

This week, Rob Collis preaches from Luke 14.7-14. In our passage today, Jesus was sitting at a dinner table, and whenever Jesus came for dinner, things were never dull. This is the third time in Luke’s Gospel that Jesus has been invited to dinner at the home of a local religious leader. And every time he comes to dinner, Jesus makes things uncomfortable – he challenges the social conventions and the moral values of his hosts and fellow guests. As Rob unpacks this passage, he invites us look at three different things Jesus talks about at this meal: The place of honour, the path of humility, and the position of the host.
