The Rich Man and Lazarus

Feb 22, 2026    Pastor John Keller

In this message, The Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19–31), Jesus tells a sobering parable about wealth, compassion, and eternity. The story confronts us with a challenging truth: judgment comes not only from the wrong things we do, but from the right things we refuse to do. The rich man isn’t condemned for cruelty, but for indifference—ignoring the suffering at his gate while living in comfort. Lazarus, though poor and overlooked in life, is honored in eternity. Jesus reminds us that blessings are not proof of God’s approval, and suffering is not proof of His absence.
