Deep & Wide: The Good Samaritan & Exit 19 (Luke 10:25-37)

Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan is not merely about being a “good person.” It reveals our tendency to justify ourselves and limit who we love, while showing that we are the wounded ones in need of rescue. Religion cannot save us, but Jesus, the true Good Samaritan, draws near, heals our wounds, pays our debt, and brings us into His community. The church is the inn where we are restored and equipped to join Christ in His mission. Our call is not to ask who deserves our love, but to become a neighbor to those in need, loving, forgiving, and serving others as Christ has done for us, and carrying His Gospel into our city and beyond.
