There is something called the underdog. It’s the boxer not expected to win the fight. It’s the team up against the undefeated champions from last year.

The Lord used these parables to convey a truth to the listeners then, and to His listeners now, by taking a physical situation to teach a spiritual truth. Luke 18:1-8 is a parable about prayer.
