In this episode Fr. Justin Waltz reflects on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, showing how wealth can isolate us from God and from compassionate action toward others.

He frames the story with global and American income comparisons, warns against the little lies we tell ourselves about possessions, and urges honest soul-searching about sacrificial love.

The episode closes with remembering that our possessions and lives are given with only temporary custody from God.
