Episode 178 - The Good Samaritan: Compassion is the real mark of a neighbour

The Good Samaritan: Compassion is the real mark of a neighbour  

The Parable of the Good Samaritan is one of Jesus' most familiar teachings, and it still challenges us today. In this reflection, we explore Jesus' conversation with the lawyer. The deeper question Jesus asks is not "Who is my neighbour?" but "Who became a neighbour?" Discover how compassion lies at the heart of Christian discipleship and what it means to "go and do likewise" in our daily lives.
