What does it really mean to be a good neighbor? In this message from our series Tell Me More About…, Pastor Rick Rusaw unpacks one of Jesus’ most well-known teachings, the Parable of the Good Samaritan found in Luke 10:25-37. As Jesus answers the question, “Who is my neighbor?”, we’re challenged to move beyond comfortable faith and embrace a life marked by compassion, action, generosity, and genuine love for others. Through powerful stories and practical application, Pastor Rick reminds us that following Jesus means more than believing the right things. It means seeing people the way God sees them, stepping into messy situations, being willing to be inconvenienced, and loving our neighbors as ourselves. Jesus said that all of Scripture hangs on two commands: love God and love your neighbor (Matthew 22:37-40). This message challenges us to evaluate what we truly love, how we treat the people around us, and whether we’re living out the mission God has placed before us.
