Luke 16:20-24

Luke 16:20-24 CSB

But a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, was lying at his gate. He longed to be filled with what fell from the rich man’s table, but instead the dogs would come and lick his sores. One day the poor man died and was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s side. , The rich man also died and was buried. And being in torment in Hades, he looked up and saw Abraham a long way off, with Lazarus at his side. ‘Father Abraham! ’ he called out, ‘Have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this flame! ’

The Service Practice

4 Days

Service is love made visible. In a world that often rewards recognition and status, Jesus calls us to serve in hidden, ordinary, and costly ways — where no one is watching but the Father. Through this practice, we learn to make ourselves available, embrace interruption, and enter into true kinship with others. This plan, by Practicing the Way, features key ideas and practical suggestions for us to embody the gospel through everyday acts of service.

The Words of Jesus

4 Days

At the core of it, discipleship is taking care of and tending all the things Jesus commanded us. Yet how can we know what to do if we don't know His words? That is why we're exploring all of Jesus' words across the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each day includes a Bible narration from Ps Mark Varughese of the words of Jesus. NOTE: the translation used in the narration is the New King James Version.
