Lost in Translation_The Rich Man and Lazarus

"Power, wealth, privilege often make us blind and deaf to things that are right next to us."

This week, Pastor Micah delves into the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus to sort out what they're about. Why is the Rich Man not named but Lazarus, the lowly beggar at the gate, is given a name? Why does Jesus put these two people in the parable so close together? These men couldn't be any further apart - in status, wealth, and religious standing.
