Parable of the unworthy servants
The article explores the parable of the unworthy servants in Luke 17.7-10, stressing the importance of humility and gratitude in the life of the disciple. Jesus teaches that faithful service does not expect recognition from the master and that every ability is a gift from God. Obedience confers no rights, thus promoting an attitude of gratitude, not of entitlement.
