The Gospel Journey Pt. 14 – Redefining Boundaries (03/01/26)

March 1, 2026 In Luke 10, a religious expert asks Jesus a familiar question: “Who is my neighbor?” What follows is not a simple lesson in kindness, but a radical redefinition of what it means to belong to the people of God. In this message, we explore the deep historical hostility between Jews and Samaritans, the dangerous road to Jericho, and the unsettling shift in Jesus’ question that moves us from defining boundaries to crossing them. The parable of the Good Samaritan confronts our instinct to protect purity and challenges us to embody mercy instead. Ultimately, we discover that before we are called to cross the road for others, we are the ones Christ crossed the road to save.
