Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost (Contemporary)
What do we do with the stark contrast between wealth and poverty in Jesus’ parable of the rich man and Lazarus?
In this sermon, Rev. Wes Hill reflects on Luke 16:19–31 and shows the danger of loving money and comfort more than God. Jesus’ parable reveals a great reversal in which the poor are exalted and the rich are brought low. Yet in Christ we find hope, for he who was rich became poor for our sake so that by his poverty we might become rich.
📖 Scripture References: Luke 16:19–31, Amos 6:1–7, 1 Timothy 6:6–19, 2 Corinthians 8:9
