Episode Synopsis

(Sermon preached September 27, 2025)  This sermon on Luke 16:19-31 presents Jesus' parable of the rich man and Lazarus as a cautionary tale, not about the afterlife, but the spiritual danger of ignoring suffering at our own gates. It warns that the love of wealth can harden our hearts and deafen us to God's call to love and compassion, and blind us to our shared humanity.
