Telling The Story
Deacon and the Tax Cheat
Today's "Telling the Story" is inspired by the gospel reading for the first Sunday of the Triodion, St. Luke's gospel chapter 18 and verses 10-14, the story of the Publican and the Pharisee. As I occasionally like to do, I imagine what it would be like to hear this story told in a contemporary context, and so today's "Telling the Story" is entitled "Deacon and the Tax Cheat."
