Questions for reflection on Matthew 20:1-16:
  1. Do you ever feel like God has mistreated you? Or, that God owes you?
  2. how would you feel as the worker in the parable who has worked all day? ...as the worker that worked only one hour?
  3. Compare this parable to Luke 15:11-32. 
  4. What is your motivation for serving God?
