This is the third sermon in a series called “Old School,” where we looked at ancient spiritual practices vital to thriving today. What does it mean to be the good neighbor that Jesus calls us to be? How do God’s values challenge the world’s values? The parable of the good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) challenges us to be more like Christ in ways we might not have considered. April 19, 2020.
