SHOW NOTES

Text:
Luke 16:19-31

Description:
In this week's episode, Katie, Matt, and Eric discuss Jesus' parable of "Lazarus and the Rich Man".  In the parable, Jesus does much more than just give us some data points about hell, but rather, He reveals that there are two different ways of showing up in the world.  One where we cruelly live for ourselves without concern or compassion for others, and one where we deploy our empathy and compassion for others.  How do we know if we are blind to our own cruelty?  How do we develop and cultivate compassion?  How do we show compassion to ourselves?


Songs:

Instrumental Interlude / Break  - Eric Russell

Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.
