Today, Pastor Jack teaches us that our God-given moral code or law has a bottom line that Jesus asks of all of us. To go and do likewise by extending love and care for others as we would do for ourselves. We do not have eternal life because we do this, we do it because we have eternal life. The post Parable Of The Good Samaritan – C first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that this parable is concerned about the heart of God within us. We are not told who the man was that was in such desperate need, meaning it doesn't matter. We're to care for others as God cares regardless of the situation or circumstance. The post Parable Of The Good Samaritan – B first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that when the lawyer of the law asks, who is our neighbor, Jesus illustrates that everyone is our neighbor. Loving one's neighbor requires action, and a willingness to help, regardless of who they are, or what their status is in life. The post Parable Of The Good Samaritan – A first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

A Florida father, the Volusia County Sheriff called a "Piece of sh*t," allowed his son to roast to death for hours in a hot truck while he got a haircut & drank at a local bar. Officials say the boy who had an internal temp of 111-degrees Fahrenheit had been dead at least an hour before 911 was called. Good Samaritans stop a gun-wielding mad man from committing a mass casualty at a Michigan church. The 33yo shooter made a few ominous posts before the rampage.

In 2018, 15 puppies were permitted to leave Chernobyl's Nuclear Exclusion Zone. They were the first animals or objects allowed to exit that area since the disaster occurred in 1986.  In this final episode of our 2-part series on the “Chernobyl” miniseries, Candy and Ashley discuss the aftereffects of the nuclear accident and the accuracy of the HBO series. Why does the death toll range from 31 people to thousands, depending on the report? What is radiophobia, and why were so many diagnosed with it after the disaster? How much of the “Chernobyl” series was true, according to survivors? And what happened to the real scientists and leaders depicted in the series, after the trial?

In this episode we speak to international bestselling author, Will Carver, known for his dark, genre-defying thrillers. Will has been described as ‘arguably the most original writer in Britain', and if you've read his work, you'll understand why. He's written mind-bending novels including Good Samaritans, Nothing Important Happened Today and many more, which blend gritty crime, sharp satire and physiological suspense.Our conversation explores Will's highly anticipated new novel Kill Them With Kindness, a dark, funny and speculative thriller described as ‘widely original' and ‘slightly bonkers'. We go behind the scenes to uncover how he creates his mould-breaking thrillers, and take a peek at his personal book collection that's shaped his writing.

In this powerful exploration of authentic love, we're challenged to examine the very core of our faith. The message takes us on a journey through the parable of the Good Samaritan, revealing three profound aspects of God's love: it's unhurried, sacrificial, and breaks through differences. As we reflect on Jesus' teachings, we're reminded that true love isn't just a feeling, but an action that often goes against our cultural norms. The story compels us to slow down in our fast-paced world, to sacrifice our comfort for others, and to reach across divides that society often reinforces. This message isn't just about understanding love intellectually; it's a call to shape our hearts so that this authentic love flows naturally from us, reflecting God's character to a world in desperate need of it. How might our lives change if we truly embraced this kind of love in our daily interactions? If you want help in starting this journey, please don't hesitate to reach out! If you want to talk to someone about going deeper in your faith or starting to walk with Jesus on a daily basis, please reach out to us at office@graceva.com

We've all asked it—What must I do to be saved? But when Jesus answers, it isn't with a list or a lecture. He tells a story. A story about a broken man, a dusty road, and a love that crosses every boundary.   In this sermon from Luke 10, Stephen Bean takes us deep into the heart of the parable of the Good Samaritan—not as a moral checklist, but as a gospel story. The wounded man isn't someone else. It's us. And the Good Samaritan? That's Jesus.   Come discover a Father who doesn't turn away from our brokenness but moves toward us with compassion and healing. This is more than kindness—it's salvation.

Study 14 - Luke 10:25-42 Loving God and Neighbour The parable of the Good Samaritan is usually considered by itself. It should not be! It is part of a pair with the story of Mary and Martha. The two go together because in the original Greek the stories are about 'a certain lawyer' (v 25) and 'a certain woman' (v 38). The two sayings of Jesus that conclude the stories are: in 37b 'Go and do likewise' and in 42b 'Mary has chosen what is better'. Question 1. Which saying is the more important in popular thinking and preaching? Which does the words Jesus used suggest is the more important? There is a great deal more interest in the story of the good Samaritan because of its simple brilliance as a story and the way it can be taken as an example by anybody, Christian or not. Everybody recognizes that they should help other people; not everybody is prepared to listen to Jesus as Mary did. Yet the words that Jesus used strongly suggest that the latter is the more important. Before we read the verses let's think about the structure a bit. The famous parable is set within two short dialogues, the first in 25 - 28 and the second in 29, 36 and 37. Both dialogues have the same, quite natural, formats: 1) a question from the lawyer; 2) a challenging question in reply from Jesus; 2') an answer to Jesus from the lawyer; 1') an answer to the lawyer from Jesus. The well-known parable is inserted before the question of Jesus in the second dialogue. We read the first dialogue: Luke 10:25 - 28. Did you get the pattern? And the second dialogue: Luke 10:29, the story, 36, 37. What a wonderful teacher Jesus was! Wouldn't it be good if all teachers were as good as he was at getting people to answer their own questions! Question 2. In the first dialogue the answer of Jesus in v 28 does not exactly answer the lawyer's question in v 25. What significance can you see in the discrepancy? What does this tell us about the nature of eternal life? The lawyer asked about eternal life. Jesus answered about life, a good life maybe but still only about life. What the Gospel's call 'eternal life' Jesus says starts in the here and now with a good life lived in this present world. That good life is a life of following him. It is time to read the famous parable. Luke 10:30 - 35 and the conclusions Jesus draws in 36, 37. Some things usually missed: a) The lawyer's question in the first dialogue (v 25) is deeply flawed: one can do nothing to inherit. b) The parable does not answer the lawyer's question in the second dialogue (v 29) but a slightly different one: 'Which of these three became a neighbour'. c) The priest would have been rich, therefore on horseback contrasting the Samaritan's donkey. d) The Samaritan would have risked his life taking a wounded Jew into a Jewish town, where the inn would necessarily have been. The men in the street might well have thought he was responsible for wounding the man and started to attack him before finding out what really happened. Question 3. Who is the Samaritan portraying? How does this relate to the point about the danger to the Samaritan going into a Jewish town? Jesus is the Good Samaritan. All others aiming to copy the story are simply following his example. This is another point about the story often missed. In coming into this world Jesus fully accepted all the danger that was to him. He died on the Cross to rescue those who are wounded: physically, spiritually, morally. Moving on to the second story: to put this story of Mary and Martha in context: the Jewish Rabbis said 'let thy house be a meeting place for the Sages and sit amidst the dust of their feet and drink in their words with thirst ... but talk not much with womankind.' We read Luke 10:38 - 42. In that culture a teacher sat to teach and a student, necessarily male, stood to recite and sat to learn. Question 4. How does Luke indicate that things were not as they would have expected them to be? Mary was sitting and listening. We can only imagine what the reaction of the men who wanted to be around Jesus might have been. Horror, shock, disgust, amusement - perhaps just a few of them would praise her for what she did. We are dominantly either doers or hearers: the Samaritan or Mary. By putting these two stories together Luke, and Jesus, are presumably saying that we ought to be both. Question 5. How can the doers learn to listen better? How can the hearers learn to be more practically active? These things are a matter of intent and will. Doers can always say 'I'm too busy' and hearers can say 'Ill do it tomorrow when I have finished listening'. Only if we are prepared to listen to what the Word of God is saying to us will we be all that we should be. Question 6. How does verse 42a provide a complete answer to the lawyer's original question in verse 25? If we truly follow Jesus all the rest will fall into place. We are never told whether the lawyer did set out to follow Jesus. We know that Jesus told him what he needed to do. Some of us need the same advice: 'go and do likewise'. Some of us need to copy the example of Mary more closely. Which category do you fall into: more action or more meditation? Tap or click here to save/download this as a MP3 audio file

Can religion lead us to feel lost rather than found? It might sound counterintuitive, but the parables from Luke 15 offer a powerful lens through which to examine this idea. We'll unpack the narratives of the lost sheep, the Good Samaritan, and others to challenge modern interpretations that may have missed Jesus's radical compassion and intent. By scrutinizing the roles of tax collectors and so-called sinners as covenant people entangled in the religious rigidity of their time, we aim to reveal fresh insights about being "lost" within one's own faith tradition.Our conversation doesn't shy away from addressing how religious practices today can sometimes overshadow genuine spiritual connection. With the story of the Good Samaritan, we explore the danger of letting nominal Christianity—rooted in self-effort and moralism—distract from the true spiritual rest and power that Jesus promised. By examining these biblical tales, we underscore the enduring relevance of Jesus's message of rest for those overwhelmed by religious expectations, both then and now.Key Takeaways:The "lost" in the Bible are often individuals trapped within ineffective religious systems, not just those outside the faith.Jesus's teachings emphasize reaching out with compassion to those burdened by religious hypocrisy, much like today's weary believers.Pastor Steve stresses the need for a powerful spiritual renewal akin to the empowerment seen in the early church.Current religious practices can lead to a nominal faith experience, highlighting the need for dedication and true discipleship.A revitalized faith includes realizing promises of the covenant through active engagement and empowerment from God.

In this week's message from our new series Storyteller, we're stepping into one of Jesus' most well-known parables: the Good Samaritan. It's a story that pulls love out of theory and places it right in the middle of real life—messy, inconvenient, and transformational. Join us this Sunday as we explore what it means to love with gospel-shaped eyes, to cross the road when it's easier to walk away, and to become the kind of neighbor Jesus calls us to be.

Rev. Wendy Craig Purcell's message, titled “Relationships Wisdom from the Parables”, is part of the Ancient Wisdom, Modern Lives series and highlights how timeless spiritual teachings can guide us through modern challenges. Focusing on the parable of the Good Samaritan, it reminds us of the relevance of compassion and kindness in today's polarized society. The message encourages us to act with kindness beyond our usual circles and to recognize the inherent worth of every person we encounter.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

“Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity.” Col 4:5.  Jesus was asked, ”Who is my neighbor?” He gives us answers throughout scripture:  “The Good Samaritan,” “The Great Commission,” The Samaritan Woman” and in his compassion for the least, the last, the lost.. We can turn to the timely wisdom of the Bible to live out the Gospel. Whether in foreign global missions, when we welcome immigrants to our country, or right down the street, we fulfill a significant purpose as commanded by Jesus. “A new command I give you: Love one another.

Jesus responds to a lawyer trying to test him with a parable. His teaching continues to marvel and astonish the crowds. In the parable, the Good Samaritan helps the hurt man out of compassion. For us, we are certainly called to show mercy to others, but must remember that Jesus showed mercy to us first. He is the true and better Good Samaritan who meets us in our brokenness, and at great cost to Himself, restores us back. 

In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus isn't just calling us to be nicer people, but is revealing our inability to love perfectly. He exposes the self-justifying heart and shows that true love is costly, sacrificial, and supernatural. We are reminded of our need for grace, of the radical love we've received in Christ, and that the Spirit of God is working to conform us into the image of our Savior. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

Send us a textPhilip Yancey's courageous and penetrating new book, his memoir - Where the Light Fell - will be released on October 5. There's a big audience for Philip's story. There are over 100 million claim to have experienced Christian fundamentalism and 25 million more identify as "exvangelicals." Brother Marshall, a musical prodigy, had perfect pitch. Philip's  father contracted polio and died when Philip was only 18 months old. Ken notes that Philip's experience in segregationalist fundamentalism is extreme. Paul Van Gorder, Bob Jones, Jr., Lester Maddox all would come to Philip's church. The Prophecy Conferences were an annual event, providing much to fear. Tony Evans came to the church, and was turned away.  Philip's mother, a well known Bible teacher, struggled to make ends meet but never quite recovered from her husbands passing. The three Yancey's lived in a mobile home, located in an Atlanta area "trailer park." The Lost Cause narrative permeated church life, but high school opened new perspectives for Philip.  He shares bitter-sweet memories of church life. Philip appeared as the Southern preacher Elijah in a high school performance of Inherit the Wind. In Bible College, Philip had a reputation as an intellectual rebel, reading Bertrand Russell and Harvey Cox. Then he met his match, Janet. The parable of the Good Samaritan changed everything. He would later write. What's So Amazing about Grace. George Beverly Shea's song touches Philip.SHOW NOTES Support the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show. Thank you!

Orthodoxy and Orthopraxis (right belief and right practice) are intimately tied together. All of the fathers and, in particular, Saint Isaac the Syrian want us to understand that our perception of revelation, who God is to us and what we have become in his Son through the Paschal mystery, and how we live our life are inseparable. God has revealed himself to us in a unique and distinctive fashion, and has made known to us our dignity and destiny in Christ. Therefore, having a clear understanding of our human nature, the sickness of sin and the passions that follow and the healing that takes place through Grace is imperative. Isaac pushes us to understand that virtue is the natural health of the soul and the passions are an illness of the soul that follow and invade our nature and despoil its proper health. One can see how essential this is when looking at our life in this world and the struggles of the spiritual life. We can attribute sin and the hold that passions have upon us simply to human nature. However, when we do this, we lose sight of the fact that we have been created in the image and likeness of God and that sin is antecedent to that reality. We have been created for love and to manifest this love through virtue. A faulty or incomplete understanding of human anthropology and psychology, has often been the pretext that the Evil One uses to distort our vision to the point that we willingly embrace that which enslaves us.  To understand that we have been created good, conversely, establishes a firm desire within the human heart for that which is of God. It also establishes confidence and hope in the grace of God who tells us precisely that he has come not to judge the world but to save it!  One of the beautiful things that the desert fathers would have us understand is that Christ is the divine physician who has come to heal us. He is the Good Samaritan from the gospel who takes our burden upon himself in order that we might be nursed to the fullness of health.  Again, if Isaac makes us work to understand this, we must see it as a labor of love. To grasp these truths allows us to give free expression to our desire for God and to run towards Him with the freedom of those aided by His Grace. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:52 Fr.

I've heard the term used roughly in the sense of "emotions" (i.e. anger, sadness, etc.), but does Isaac mean it more in the sense of "temptations"?

06/01/25. The Parables of Jesus: The Good SamaritanKyle Hackett

Episode 264 - Jubilee and the Good Samaritan Why do we leave what's good and go searching for answers in places that break us? This week, the friars unpack the story of the Good Samaritan through the lens of the Jubilee year. What draws us away from the peace and identity we have in God—toward places that leave us wounded and empty? Whether it's the orphan mindset, performance pressure, or endless distractions, we all carry brokenness. But Jesus meets us there, not with judgment, but healing. He carries us home, restoring what's been lost. This episode talks about the Good Samaritan and how it relates to the heart of the Jubilee.
