LARKCAST

For a good long while a widow demanded a local judge to justify her in court against her adversary, but her case was dismissed time and time again because it had no legal merit. The widow, unable take no for an answer, kept coming back to the judge. At the risk of his reputation and an ethic committee investigation into grounds for disbarment—he decides to justify her. This illegal vindication came not from the law, but the selfishness of the judge who desired to once and for all be finished with the wet blanket of our cries for justice. Thank God Jesus felt the freedom to use a bad character as a fill-in for the Father in a parable or else we wouldn’t have the Parable of the Widow & the Unjust Judge.

What is LARKCAST?

Life is hectic, demanding, and doesn’t stop. When honest with ourselves, we must confess we often don’t know what the hell we’re doing. The Larkcast is an ongoing conversation about the inclusive and mischievous nature of God’s presence through the lens of all the things that make up the phenomena we refer to as “life.” Astonishing grace and refreshing honesty collide right here for your weekly encouragement.
