Episode 171 - Worship - Not His to Own (Luke 12:13-21)

Sometimes, Jesus addressed needs in the Gospels that are strange or unknown to us - but not in this passage.  Here, Jesus tells the story of a rich man who has received a windfall, an unlooked-for blessing, and plots to increase his own comfort and ease.  That path is not the path of life, Jesus says; rather, he encourages all who hear his words to think of those in need and share what God has blessed them with at every opportunity, because nothing that we have been given is ours to own.
