Neighboring in Dependence
We have been talking about neighboring (shorthand for "love your neighbor as yourself") for nearly two months now. How are you doing with it? No, seriously... if you're honest, how are you doing with it? Are you discouraged and disappointed at how many opportunities you let slip by? Maybe you're actually ashamed of how you don't even care about your neighbors, or this series, at all. What if the primary goal of the parable of the Good Samaritan is not actually for you to love your neighbor... what if it was something better? What if this story was designed to show you who Jesus is and invite you into greater dependence on him?
