Guest Ben Sooy joins Autumn on the podcast to discuss what loving our neighbors means in the biblical conception of the term, and how the gospel compels us to act for the good of neighbors in our local communities.

In Luke 10, Jesus, in response to a question posed by a legal scholar, tells the story of a Jewish man who is ambushed by robbers, beaten, and left for dead. A priest and a Levite both pass the man, turning a blind eye to his pain and need. The unlikeliest of heroes, a Samaritan, has compassion on the dying man. Jesus goes on to say that the Samaritan's self-sacrificial care is a demonstration of genuine neighborly love.
