“And Who Is My Neighbor?” Luke 10:25-37

The Good Samaritan is one of the most well-known of all Jesus’ parables. It has much to teach us about the radical love we’re called to show everyone we meet. But this parable is about more than who we ought to love and how. It’s about how the lines we draw between us and others are an ugly consequence of the line we draw between ourselves and God. Unless and until that line gets erased, we will never truly get what it means to love God and our neighbor.
