Sunday 10th May 2026 // Morning // Luke 10:25-37 // The Parable of the Good Samaritan

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 10:25-37 at morning worship on Sunday 10th May 2026 in First Ards. Jesus tells the parable of the Good Samaritan in response to a lawyer who wants to justify himself. The story exposes how easily we define mercy narrowly, see need and pass by. But it also points us to Christ, who didn’t pass us by, but came near in mercy, bore our sin and saved us by grace. Having received that mercy from him, we’re called to become merciful neighbours to others.
