The Parable of the Rich Fool

Episode 3

By Rev Trevor Adams | Luke 12: 13-21
Luke 12: 13-21 (NIV)

Years ago I heard this quote:  “I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet.”   A disgruntled man asks Jesus, the teacher,  to  arbitrate - the man's brother  allegedly grabbed all the family inheritance.  Jesus partly responds with a story of a very wealthy self-made  man who wanted even more, then died, lost his life. Do you and I maybe feel that we haven't enough to share? How much is 'enough?'
