We learn six lessons from Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan: (1) The gold standard of Christianity; (2) Loving people required to live the good life; (3) There are no loopholes; (4) Loving people doesn't come from obligation but from compassion; (5) Compassion trumps our schedule and plans; (6) Our kindness to others is God's plan to confront evil. Join me in this 5th sermon from The God Life series. This CR talk was recorded on May 6th. Thanks so much to Dave Johnson for his video editing work.
