Being Rich Toward God–Treasure Map–Homily–8th Sunday after Pentecost–07-31-2022

Fr Atamian’s homily for the 8th Sunday after Pentecost, 07/31/2022, Calvary, Episcopal, Church, Batavia, IL, There is a parable in today’s Gospel (Luke 12: 13-21). A parable is a story with a punch line. The punch line in today’s parable is “Be Rich Toward God.”

Jesus observed that where one’s treasure is, there, too, is one’s heart. Our Treasure Map needs to point the way to Be Rich Toward God.

(Readings: Hosea 11: 1-11; Psalm 107: 1-9, 43; Colossians 3: 1-11; Luke 12: 13-21)
