This parable today is both a story that I think cuts against the grain of a lot of our our culture, but it's also the gospel in a nutshell. Because rather than than chopping us down, Jesus allows himself to be chopped down on our behalf, in our place, so that we can truly live. Within the story of Luke thirteen one through nine, there is this invitation to repent. And that's a word that can have some baggage that can feel really heavy at times, but repentance simply means to, I'm heading in this direction. I'm gonna turn around and and move in a new direction.
