Being With Neighbors – Sam Wells

from Love Your Neighbor

Why did Jesus tell us that loving neighbors is so central to Christian life and witness? We often think Jesus wants us to help neighbors mostly to alleviate suffering. But what if Jesus wanted us to encounter neighbors—to know them in their beauty and complexity, and to be known by them just as Jesus knows us? Sam Wells shares his theology of Being With in connection to Jesus’s commandment to love neighbors and discusses his new book Constructing an Incarnational Theology. Check out the books discussed – A Nazareth Manifesto and Constructing an Incarnational Theology.
