Nola Lorraine asked Christine Dillon:

Which is your favourite parable of Jesus and why?

Christine Dillon I might have two favourites. The 'Pharisee and the Tax Collector' (Luke 18:9-14). I love the shock of it and the emphasis on those whom God accepts.
The other one is 'The rich man and Lazarus' (Luke 16:19ff). I love what it demonstrates of hell. Also that the man there suddenly becomes an evangelist and wants someone sent to warn his family. He's told, "If they don't believe Moses ... they won't believe anyone." Or in modern terms, if they don't believe someone who rose from the dead, they won't believe anyone.
