Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost
from All Souls Parish Sermons · host Philip Brochard
The Rev. Phil Brochard The sermon begins with Trump’s reflection on heaven and uses it to frame Luke’s parable of the rich man and Lazarus. The preacher highlights Jesus’ warnings about wealth, comfort, and distraction, which insulate people from others’ suffering. The rich man’s failure is not active cruelty but his inability to see Lazarus. Christian faith, the preacher insists, is a “mysticism of open eyes” — perceiving suffering and responding with compassion. The sermon ends with the parable’s haunting question: even if someone rose from the dead, would we truly live differently?
