Interim Senior Minister, Rev. Dr. Cameron Douglas’ message is based on Luke 10: 25 – 37.

Overview

If someone were to ask me, “What is the meaning of Christianity?” I would tell them two parables. First the Prodigal Son parable, which defines who God is, and then the Good Samaritan parable which defines who a Christian is.

The Good Samaritan parable tells us in a nutshell we need to live a life of faith enough to love someone else offering them hope. We see an ordinary (Samaritan) man who lived by faith far more than the temple priest or the Levite temple worker whose duty is to do God’s will. The Good Samaritan lived a life of faith and it was love that stopped him to help. God loves us too in the faithfulness of Jesus who saves us.
