Journal Entry – Luke 16:19-31 – The Year of Living Biblically
Reflections on Luke 16:19-31 And the moral of the story is … I sometimes think that way after reading a parable. What is the “moral” in the story of the Rich Man and Lazarus? That after death the poor will be rewarded and the rich will be punished forever? That maybe if the rich man...

Journal Entry – Luke 16:1-9 – The Year of Living Biblically
Luke 16: 1-9 At first I found this passage puzzling. The Master commends his servant for creatively/corruptly finding a way to support himself after he loses his job.

The message...

Journal Entry – Luke 10:25-37 – The Year of Living Biblically
Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 Observation: I'm sure this religion scholar thought he was doing all he could to live in a God-pleasing way. He didn't anticipate being challenged by Jesus to look at how he lived. After all, as a scholar, he will have paid attention to all the smallest details of following the Law Code...
