In the story of the Good Samaritan, three men encounter a man who is in great need and are faced with a choice: go and help, or avoid the problem. In the story, the unlikely hero is the Samaritan man who valued people, specifically the injured man, over his position or title. Jesus has called us to serve and to love people, not to avoid those who are different from us or situations that might cost us something. Through the Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37, Pastor Brian unpacks Jesus' words and how they should push us to action.
