Luke 16:19-31; 1 Timothy 6:6-19 | God created us to live as one. And yet, so many chasms exist, and our response to them only continues to divide us: rich and poor, conservative and liberal, male and female, heterosexual and homosexual, old and young. As followers of Jesus, we likely “know” that these divisions are not God’s vision. But beyond a lesson in morality, telling us what we “should” do, what drives us to move from where we’re at to bridge the divide? Join us this weekend for worship, as we remember God’s action in entering the chasm of death for our sake, and as we are prompted by the Spirit to act as bridge builders of love.
