• S8 E1: The 21 Parables of Jesus Christ
    Jul 21 2023

    SEASON 8

    EPISODE 1

    INTRODUCTION TO THE PARABLES OF JESUS CHRIST SERIES

    The parables spoken by Jesus were not mere stories, but profound teachings filled with spiritual wisdom and guidance. Jesus, in His infinite wisdom, used everyday situations to impart deeper moral lessons to His audience and followers. His parables remain relevant today, as they were when first spoken, carrying timeless truths that transcend generations.

    In this modern era, inspired through my storytelling skills from writing numerous novels, I have contemporize the parables with Season 8. I am embarking on a journey to reinterpret Jesus' teachings for a contemporary audience. The parable of the Great Banquet, found in Luke 14:15-24, has been brought to life with a modern scenario that mirrors its essence today to demonstrate how I will take 21 parables and for my listening audience put a twist on them in the so-called modern day scenario.....

    Despite the disappointments and rejections, the man's heart remains open. He extends his invitation to those less privileged, inviting residents from a local homeless shelter who gladly accept the offer.

    This modern scenario mirrors the parable's allegorical representation. The Host symbolizes God, the banquet's readiness signifies Jesus' coming to earth, and the two lists of guests represent the Jews and Gentiles. The excuses provided by the friends reflect the various reasons people today may reject God's invitation to accept Jesus as their Savior and Lord.

    Despite the initial rejections, the parable highlights God's unwavering love and grace. He does not cancel the banquet but extends the invitation to those who might have been marginalized by society, showing that the Good News of salvation is available to all, regardless of their background or status.

    One of the profound theological themes in this parable is evangelism—the call to share the Good News of salvation with others. Just as the second group of invitees were urged to accept the invitation, believers are entrusted with the task of evangelism, inviting all people, "whosoever will," to accept God's invitation for salvation.

    May we, inspired by this parable and its modern rendition, embrace the responsibility of sharing the Gospel with love, compassion, and persistence. Let us remember that God's invitation is open to everyone, and through our efforts, may many souls come to know the love and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    As we conclude this thrilling episode, we invite you to embark on an extraordinary journey through all 21 of Jesus' parables reimagined in the context of the year 2023. Get ready to witness these timeless stories come to life in today's world, with modern scenarios that will both captivate and enlighten you.

  • S7 E3 Delta Dental Network Dentist - Jockeying with the Codes
    May 13 2023

    Delta Dental - Do you have a Network Dentist? Do you trust them to give you the best price according to their contract with your dental provider. Well, they should, but with two separate dentists in Georgetown, Texas, I found this isn't the case. And, it's probably a practice they do to anyone who trusts them to do right with you as a Network Dentist. They have learned how easy it is to jockey with the codes on multiple Pre-authorizations until they get the elevated price they want!
