Description

At Berwyn United Methodist Church, we believe that following Jesus means seeing and serving those in need, even when the task feels overwhelming. This Sunday, we invite you to join us as we explore the story of the rich man and Lazarus, a powerful reminder that God's call to compassion is not optional. When faced with the enormity of suffering, it is easy to feel powerless—but God does not ask us to fix everything, only to be faithful. Together, we will reflect on how small acts of love can create real change, and how we are never alone in this mission. Come and be encouraged, challenged, and renewed as we seek to be the hands and feet of Christ in a hurting world. There is a place for you here!

Welcome to the Berwyn United Methodist Church Audio Podcast. This week, we explore a powerful sermon based on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus from the Gospel of Luke, challenging us to respond to the needs around us with compassion and action. Join us for scripture readings, reflection, and prayer. For more information or to become part of our faith community, visit www.berwynumc.org. Tune in again next week for another uplifting message. May God's peace and grace be with you. Amen.
