The Parable of the Shrewd Manager is a particularly difficult parable to understand relative to Jesus' other parables. It's not so much that this story is taken out of context, but rather is just plain confusing. Taking a look at the context around this story should help us understand this passage a little more clearly and discover what applications we can take away from it.

From Series: "In Context"

There's lots of popular verses in the Bible that people cherish and display as continual reminders around their house as decoration, or for some, even in a tattoo. With 'In Context', what we hope to do is to investigate the circumstances and cultures these popular passages were originally written in and by so doing, uncover a deeper, richer, and greater understanding of those verses many know and love.
