    We’ve been looking at a series of parables from Luke’s gospel that have been leading to one of the most profound parables of them all; the story the rich man and Lazarus, or what I’m calling, “A Crypt-tic Tale.” Its moral is to listen to God now or regret if for eternity.

I met a relatively young Jewish medical doctor there and then a week or so later, boldly called him up at his practice to ...read more
