#12 - Loving the Samaritan - Doug Burleson

Biblical characters and people groups have deeply impacted our common vocabulary, even thousands of miles away and thousands of years later. If someone was to call you a “Doubting Thomas,” “A Pharisee,” or a “Good Samaritan” we would understand what they mean.  Sometimes, however, the Bible’s teaching about these ancient people may not impact us as it should because we are so far removed from the original culture where these groups of people lived. When we spend some time understanding the New Testament world, we can clearly see how Jesus’s message was radical but necessary in His time and in ours.  I hope you’ll benefit as much as I have from this lesson from Doug Burleson about Loving the Samaritan. As mentioned in the intro, check out https://thechristianexile.com for articles about how Christians, as exiles and strangers in this world, can best understand Jesus’s kingdom and our role in it.
