This Week in the Bulletin:

Stop Playing the Game

Jesus has been invited to the home of a prominent person, a "leader of the Pharisees," and he notices how people jockey carefully for position, status, and prominence. They're likely thinking, who will notice me? Whom can I impress? Jesus puts his finger on the most desperate scenario for an egotist. He tells them a parable about a man trying as hard as he can to be noticed. But he gets noticed for all the wrong reasons! His egotistic games backfire dreadfully, as everyone sees him reduced to embarrassment.
So what's the solution? Stop playing the game. Take the lowest place on purpose. Opt out. Invite people to a party who have no capacity whatsoever to invite you in return: "Invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."The Word on Fire Bible Bishop Robert Barron
