Faith E-News: We Are Called Out and upcoming sermon series

December 26, 2022

In our parable, the rich man was worried about saving his brothers from suffering but he was not ever empathetic toward Lazarus. Even when he saw Lazarus was no longer suffering but treated as a son of Abraham, the rich man still couldn't really see Lazarus. Instead, he appealed to Abraham to order Lazarus to serve him. The entitled rich man ironically expected poor Lazarus to give up his riches in heaven to comfort him. When we look at the other scriptures for Sunday, we are given warnings about being self-indulgent. God watches how we use our blessings and calls us to a richer life in sharing with those outside our door. Come to worship to ask God for help with seeing who is truly poor and rich.

Bells Play this Palm Sunday and Easter!

On Palm Sunday, we shout and sing "Hosanna," or "Save us," and Jesus answers. He comes humbly forward, giving his life. Our prayers already answered, even in the meaning of his name, "The Lord saves." Let us bring our palms together to praise our King and Messiah. Come to worship, thankful that Jesus answered "Hosanna" beyond our hopes to give so much more than we asked or imagined.
