In this episode we remember the story of the Good Samaritan and how true neighbor-love crosses every social, ethnic, and moral boundary, revealing that compassion is the real evidence of knowing God. Ultimately the parable exposes our failure to love this way and points us to Jesus as the true and better Samaritan who rescues us at great cost to himself.Speaker - Kevin Lewis (Good Shepherd, Carshalton Beeches)Reading: Luke 10:25-37

We see that both the openly sinful and the outwardly moral are equally in need of grace, but only the one who knows her need receives it with love. Jesus shows that the depth of our love for him is directly tied to how deeply we grasp the magnitude of our forgiveness.Speaker: Ursula SimpsonBible Reading: Luke 7:36-50

Unexpected Calling

Today's message is about the time when Jesus called the disciples. We see that he calls groups - friends, colleagues, family.  Following Jesus is costly - it cost the disciples everything. Their calling was a life-long calling and Jesus is calling you to follow him too, if you’re still on the fence. Despite the cost, following him is worth it, even though it’s hard.Speaker - Eileen PooreBible Reading:Luke 5:1-11
