Tuesday, March 11th: What if the story of the Good Samaritan isn’t just about being kind but about breaking down barriers? In this episode of The Daily Grind, John Spencer takes a fresh look at one of Jesus’ most well-known parables, unpacking its radical implications for how we love others. The religious expert who tested Jesus wanted to know, “Who is my neighbor?” but Jesus flipped the question—challenging us to ask, “How can I be a neighbor?” Through historical and cultural context, we explore why the priest and Levite walked away, why the Samaritan’s kindness was shocking, and what this parable reveals about God’s heart. Jesus isn’t just giving moral advice; He’s calling us to a love that crosses boundaries and costs us something. And in the end, we see that Jesus Himself is the ultimate Good Samaritan, rescuing us when we were spiritually broken. Who in your life have you avoided helping? What excuses have kept you from loving others? Join us as we rediscover the challenge—and the beauty—of loving like Jesus.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions.
