Parable: “The Shrewd Manager”
Reference: Luke 16:1-15
Theme: The Measure of Faithfulness is Consistent in Small and Large Areas in Life
Context: In the Beginning of Luke Chapter 15, Jesus had an Audience of Tax Collectors, Sinners and Pharisees who all dealt with and understood the Dynamics of Money
Luke 16:1-7
Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.’ “The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I’m not strong enough to dig, and I’m ashamed to beg— I know what I’ll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses.’ “So he called in each one of his master’s debtors. He asked the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ “‘Eight hundred gallons of olive oil,’ he replied. “The manager told him, ‘Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred.’ “Then he asked the second, ‘And how much do you owe?’ “‘A thousand bushels of wheat,’ he replied. “He told him, ‘Take your bill and make it eight hundred.’”
