The Good Samaritan | Luke 10:30-3530 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,' he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.'

We were delighted to have Rev. Andrew Rooney with us from Compassion UK. He spoke on Luke 10 and the Parable of the Good Samaritan. First preached: 14th June 2026. Speaker: Andrew Rooney.

Tim White The Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 (2)

Most people know the story of the Good Samaritan. Few understand why Jesus actually told it.When a religious expert asked Jesus how to inherit eternal life, Jesus responded with one of the most famous parables ever told. But this story is about far more than kindness, morality, or being a good neighbor.In this message, we explore:• Why Jesus used parables to reveal the Kingdom of God• The dangerous desire to justify ourselves before God• What the Good Samaritan teaches about true compassion• Why we cannot save ourselves• How Jesus is the Savior who came to rescue us when we could not rescue ourselvesThe Good Samaritan is not ultimately a story about becoming a better person. It is a story that points us to the mercy, grace, and compassion of Christ.Scripture: Luke 10:25-37Learn more about us:https://www.tulsabible.org/TBC - To know God, and make Him known.(Matt. 28. 18-20)

Tim White The Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 (1)

The parable is triggered by a question from a lawyer of the Law of Moses: “What shall I do to inherit eternal life?” Bible teaching by Alex Vaca on the 24th May 2026.

Pastor Luke Simmons continues our series, “The Blessed Life,” by teaching on Jesus' words, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy” (Matthew 5:7). In this message, Luke explains what mercy is, why it is central to God's character and to our own experience of salvation, and how followers of Christ are called to live merciful lives.  Looking at parables like the Unforgiving Servant (Matthew 18) and the Good Samaritan (Luke 10), we see that mercy is compassion in action—expressed through forgiveness and practical care for those who are hurting. As people who have received an unpayable debt of mercy from God, we are invited to extend that same mercy to others.00:00 - Introduction07:19 - What does it mean to be merciful?10:37 - Why are Christ's people to be merciful?19:31 - What does it look like to be merciful?**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

Sending Out the Blessings! "Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19 As we about to step into the new month, it's a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the countless ways God has moved in our lives. Like a gardener who prepares the soil for spring sowing, we can cultivate our spirits, readying ourselves to share the abundant blessings we've received. When we engage with others, whether through small acts of kindness or grand gestures, we sow seeds that can flourish and grow into a beautiful harvest. Think of the story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37), who didn't hesitate to help a stranger in need. His heart was filled with compassion, and he modeled what it means to truly love our neighbors. Imagine how transformative it would be if we all committed to being Good Samaritans in our daily lives — offering our time, our talents, and our resources. Each greeting, each smile, each act of service can ripple out like stones cast into a pond, reaching far beyond our immediate surroundings. 2 Corinthians 9:10-11 says, "Now he who supplies seed to the Sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us, your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God." In 2 Corinthians 9:10-11, we are reminded that God supplies seed to the Sower. Just as a farmer trusts the earth to yield a harvest, so too can we trust that our efforts to bless others will bear fruit. With every kind word or action, we are participating in a divine exchange, where the more we give, the more we receive — in joy, fulfillment, and spiritual abundance. As we move forward together, let us keep our hearts open and our hands ready to serve. Together, we can weave a tapestry of kindness that reflects God's glory in our communities. Remember Matthew 28:19-20, where we're called to make disciples of all nations. So this coming month, let's take that command to heart. Whether through sharing your faith or simply offering encouragement, you have the power to affect lives around you. Amen. Proverbs 11:25 says, "Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered." Amen. Prayer for the Day! Heavenly Father, thank You for the blessings You've poured into our lives. Help us recognize the opportunities to share these gifts with others. May our actions bring hope, joy, and encouragement to those around us. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

Following the description two weeks ago of the Family Church Values, Ps Paula this week speaks specifically about "We Value People". Every person is loved by God and we want to make sure that as a church and as people who are Kingdom-minded and who love the Lord, we want to make sure that we reflect His heart. So if we want to be Christ-like, we need to know what Christ is like! John 3:16-17 (NIV) describes the character of God perfectly..."For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him".Ps Paula then spends most of her message speaking about the subject of compassion, how we all need compassion at times in our lives and how this aspect of God's character so illustrates the value of loving people. In the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37), it is the seemingly despised Samaritan, not the religious priest, who has compassion, but this compassion costs him, as it does us and indeed it cost Jesus' life. Real compassion is not just a thought but an action too!Lamentations 3:22 (ESV) says "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end..."Do we exhibit compassion or religion....listen to this challenging podcast!

In this first message of our Parables of Grace series, we revisit one of the most familiar stories Jesus ever told—the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37).But what if we've been asking the wrong question?When a lawyer asks Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?” he's really asking where the line is—who qualifies for his time, compassion, and responsibility. Jesus responds with a story that doesn't just redefine “neighbor.” It reframes the entire conversation.This sermon explores:What Jesus meant by “eternal life” (and why it's not just about life after death)How status, identity, and tribal thinking shrink our worldWhy the priest and Levite aren't villains—but mirrorsHow grace begins when we expand our definition of who belongsThe Good Samaritan isn't just about helping someone in a ditch. It's about waking up to the kind of life that “outruns death”—the life of the age to come—starting right now.If you've ever wondered where you draw the line around compassion… this story invites you to move it.—

Rev. Derek Zeyl, Senior Pastor

In the story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37), Jesus challenges the way we define love and compassion. The question isn't who qualifies as my neighbor—it's what kind of neighbor am I becoming. This message invites us to examine our hearts and reflect on how Christ-like our love really is. Jesus reminds us that anyone in need is our neighbor, and following Him means moving toward mercy, not away from inconvenience.

Jesus is clear that no amount of good works will be enough to earn eternal life. Only a perfect person is able to inherit eternal life. The bad news for us is that we are not perfect. The good news is Christ lived a perfect life and he is willing to give us his perfection if we repent and put our trust in him. Jesus also teaches the lawyer the kind of love that he requires of his followers, which is sacrificial love. That is how every Christian ought to be loving the people around them, just like the good Samaritan.

The parable of the Good Samaritan is another popular parable of Jesus that often gets overlooked. In this story, Jesus describes a Jewish man in need on the side of the road. Religious experts and the “spiritually mature” pass him by, but a Samaritan, one of the most despised people to the Jews, stops to help him. In our lives today, we can be tempted to simply pass by those whom God is calling us to love and serve. We're either too busy, we see them as too bad, or their situations are too broken for us to reach out in love. Like the man Jesus tells this story too, we can be caught asking “who exactly is my neighbor?” rather than “who will I be a neighbor to?” But by asking this question, we can begin to allow Jesus to transform us into people who are truly spiritually mature, people fully capable of loving and serving those around us.

"In today's episode, Emma Dotter talks with faithful Watermark member, Jesus sends out the 72 in Luke 10 and tells them not to worry about money or comfort. How have you seen God provide when you stepped out in faith? 3. In the story of Mary and Martha, Jesus praises Mary for sitting at His feet. Over the years, how have you learned to choose ‘the better portion'? 4. In the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10), Jesus flips the question from ‘Who is my neighbor?' to ‘What kind of neighbor am I?' Why do you think that shift matters so much?"

Jesus never seemed in a hurry, even when crowds demanded His attention. Drawing from the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37), we'll unpack how formation happens in our margins—not our schedules. Living a Spirit-led life means being interruptible. One of our kingdom qualities is being an unhurried friend, and this passage challenges us to consider who our friend is, the same way that Jesus challenged first-century people with their definition of neighbor.

Worship - August 10, 2025 “The Parable of the Good Samaritan” - Luke 10:25-37Elder George Flanagan

Jerry Jones unpacks the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37) to show what it truly means to love others as Jesus loves us. Jerry encourages us to pray for opportunities, build relationships with those far from God, and step out of our comfort zones to make a difference—one person at a time. This message is a reminder that evangelism starts with simple, everyday acts of love.

Join Us for Worship: Sundays at 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM https://www.flourishinggrace.org/plan-your-visit In this powerful message from our ongoing series in the Gospel of Luke, Pastor Benjer McVeigh leads us through one of the most familiar — and dangerously misunderstood — teachings of Jesus: the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37). But before we tune out with a “been there, heard that” mindset, Benjer challenges us to slow down, lean in, and let the Word do surgery on our souls. What if we've misunderstood this parable all along? What if the point isn't about identifying who our neighbor is — but realizing we are the neighbor God has sent? This message begins by confronting the deceptively small definition of “neighbor” held by the expert in the law, a man who — like many of us — sought to justify himself by asking Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” But Jesus doesn't answer with a list of who qualifies. Instead, He flips the lawyer's question on its head and tells a story where the most unlikely character — a Samaritan, despised by Jews in that time — becomes the model of true neighborly love. As Benjer unpacks the cultural and religious background of the text, he reveals that the priest and Levite in the story weren't merely callous — they were likely busy with temple duties, constrained by religious expectations. Yet their roles, deeply tied to the law, couldn't produce the compassion needed in the moment. It is the Samaritan — the outsider, the one least expected — who sees, stops, and sacrifices. He is moved by compassion, not convenience. He loves with open hands, at great risk and great cost to himself. And this, Jesus says, is what it means to be a neighbor. The message digs deeper, applying this radical vision of love to our daily lives. Who have we disqualified from being our neighbor? Who have we labeled in such a way that excuses us from loving them? Whether it's someone we disagree with politically, someone whose lifestyle we don't understand, or someone we believe “deserves” the consequences they're facing — we are reminded that the teaching of Jesus leaves no room for exclusion. We don't get to decide who deserves love. We simply get to extend it, because Jesus first loved us. And the message gets personal. Benjer shares how a group of teenagers at church camp, willing to sit under the Word of God with seriousness and humility, stirred his own heart. Their willingness to listen, respond, and be transformed by Scripture became the catalyst for this week's call: to slow down, stop crossing to the other side of the road, and live as the kind of neighbor Jesus modeled. By the end, the parable turns into a mirror. It's not just a story about someone else. It's a story about us. And if we take it seriously — if we dare to pray the dangerous prayer, “God, who are you calling me to be a neighbor to today?” — we might discover that Jesus has already answered. He calls us not to love from a distance or with conditions, but to love incarnationally. To see, to stop, to bind up wounds, to take risks, to pay costs, to walk with the hurting until they heal. This is the call to become a people — and a church — marked by the extravagant compassion of Jesus. A church where no label can override the title “neighbor.” A church that reflects the Good Samaritan who saw us lying in the road, broken and far from hope — and didn't pass by. Instead, He stopped. He loved. And He gave everything.

In this week's ALIVE reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer breaks open the well-known Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37). We've all heard the story—but are we truly living it?   Jesus challenges us to stop crossing to the other side of the road and start stepping into the mess of others' lives with compassion. From hospitals to laws, the legacy of the Good Samaritan is everywhere… but the call is personal.

Sermon June 29 - Good Samaritan: Luke 10:25-37 by Sunnybrook Christian Church

I want to begin by saying that God has put each of us who are Christ-followers in this time, in this place in history, as we read in Esther, “for such a time as this.” So, we must first see this as an opportunity, privilege, and blessing to be part of God's plan for this time. It's no accident that we are living in this culture. Now, here's my first suggestion for sharing the gospel with people who don't care: Share your life. If anyone is going to be open to the gospel, it will be because they sense we are real people and we really care about them. Don't you hate those cold calls you get trying to sell you something? Usually, they try to sound so friendly and make you think they really care about you personally when they're selling a new cable system or whatever. But no matter how slick their presentation may be, you know they don't know you and they don't really care about you. They're just trying to make a sale. If we come off that way when we talk about our faith in Jesus Christ, it simply won't work. In reaching the people in Thessalonica, the Apostle Paul wrote that: we dared to tell you this gospel in spite of strong opposition. For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives, nor are we trying to trick you (1 Thessalonians 2:2-3). He was facing very similar circumstances there as we do here, and he made it known that he was sharing the gospel with them because he cared for them. His motivation was transparent and pure. There was no hidden agenda with him. He further wrote: We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us (1 Thessalonians 2:8). When people believe we are sharing our faith in Jesus Christ with them because they are dear to us and that we are sharing not only our faith, but our lives with them, then there's hope that they will begin to believe the gospel is relevant, real, and worthy of consideration. So, if there are some people in your life right now who just simply don't seem to care about things of God, about hearing the truth of the gospel, don't be discouraged and don't give up. Share your life with them and let them know you care about them personally. That is a big step one in sharing the gospel with people who don't care. Here's another suggestion that can be powerful—tell stories. I never cease to be amazed at the power of storytelling. Jesus used parables almost exclusively in his short ministry on earth. That should give us the first clue that storytelling is an effective way of sharing truth because you and I will listen to a story, give it our full attention, and remember it better than anything else. Stories stick with you. Stories from the Bible are, of course, very powerful, so the more familiar you are with the stories of Scripture, the more you can tell them to others. For example, suppose you have a friend who is grieving over a wayward son or daughter. You could at an appropriate time tell them the story of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32) and encourage them to believe that there is hope for their child, too. Or if you're in a discussion about social issues, helping the poor, homeless people, or something similar, you could tell the story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37). You don't have to read from the Bible; just tell the stories of the Bible in your own words. I think of a friend, Kate, who spent five years in Afghanistan in a culture totally opposed to the gospel. She was very effective at sharing the gospel in that environment. Besides loving the people and caring about them, she also found that telling the stories of the Bible was the best way possible to share truth with them. Time and again God opened a door for her to share a Bible story. The women listened and learned, and many came to saving faith. Keep in mind it is not your job to win people to Christ. Only the Holy Spirit can do that.

What does it really mean to “love your neighbor as yourself”? It's one of the most quoted phrases in the Bible—used in politics, on social media, and in personal conversations. But are we quoting Jesus accurately? In this sermon, we dig into Matthew 22:34–40 to explore what Jesus truly meant when He linked loving your neighbor with loving God.You'll learn:- Why “love your neighbor” isn't the first thing Jesus said—and why that matters.- How putting your neighbor before God can lead to compromise.- What real love looks like in tough situations—when someone's asking you to support something you know isn't right.- How Jesus reframes love in the story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10).Discover why the order of your loves determines the shape of your life, and how keeping God as your first love transforms the way you care for the people around you.

Isaiah 54:2-3 reminds us that God is calling us to expand—to stretch, grow, and make room for more. But with that expansion comes responsibility. In today's message, "The Stakes Are High," Pastor Micahn Carter broke down the Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37, MSG) and challenged us to not be distracted by lesser things. It's time to see people the way God does and take responsibility for the world around us. Proximity is our responsibility.We don't have time to waste. Serving isn't optional. Our world is meant to include others. Help is on the way—but sometimes, you're the one being sent.
