Compassionate Employer-110622 First Presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh's Podcast

Jesus’ puzzling (to us) parable of the employer who pays the same amount to five different groups of workers, even though they didn’t all work the same amount of time.

The good news is that Jesus got what we deserved so that when we believe, we get what he deserved.
