Pearls Before Breakfast
Do not throw your pearls before pigs. - Matthew 7:6

Read it as you would one of Jesus’s long form parables. It’s the story of one of the world’s greatest violinists playing in one of the world’s busiest subway stations at rush hour. Let your heart be troubled. But catch the words about the children. And hold the insights of those interviewed. You will meet Jesus here as you behold the beauty.
