Two men are separated by a great chasm. But as the story unfolds, we discover that perhaps the chasm had been there all along. The rich man knew Lazarus’ name, yet only seemed to truly see him when he needed something from him. Join us as we explore the way Jesus' parable reveals a challenge around how wealth, power and comfort can shape the way we see the people around us.

From Series: "Unique To Luke"

Luke offers stories found nowhere else in the Gospels - stories of reversals, grace, unexpected guests, and surprising salvation. These passages reveal Jesus’ heart for the overlooked and His commitment to confront both pride and despair. Whether through Zacchaeus, the penitent thief, or the parable of the Great Banquet, the series celebrates a Saviour who notices, invites, restores, and rejoices.
