Is There Anyone I'm Trying to Impress Right Now Just for My Ego?

I love how we the parables, like, it's not just Jesus spouting information. Anytime we have image language that's more abstract, it's invitational to read ourselves into the story. And so for us, it's like, well, how do you read this expert in the law? I read him this way. You read him that way. Anyway, I love the dynamic.
