Jesus parable of the unjust steward teaches us to recognize that we have mishandled our spiritual needs and that we need to think about and plan for those needs in the future. Jesus doesn’t commend his dishonesty but the traits he exhibits. Where the prodigal son shows us the reward of the lost being found the story of Lazarus shows us the wrath to come.

v1-13 The unjust steward

v14-18 Pharisees

v19-31 The rich man and Lazarus
