What does it mean to follow Jesus, not just in what we believe, but in how we live? Drawing on his own experience of religious harm and his search for a more life-giving relationship with faith/religion, luca reflects on the difference between performing a faith and practising it. The Good Samaritan invites us to look beyond familiar ideas of goodness and respectability, towards the people who actually stop, tend wounds, and help care continue.
As part of the All Things New series, this teaching asks us to reconsider who we see, who we make room for, and where our responsibility begin. What if following Jesus is less about getting our beliefs right and more about learning, again and again, to become a neighbor?
