Taking the Sermon Home

July 14, 2013
Sermon delivered by Scott Simmons, Council President

Sermon Text: Luke 10:25-37   The Parable of the Good Samaritan

What is the young lawyer’s underlying motivation when first approaching Jesus with his question about eternal life?

In verse 29 the lawyer asks Jesus, And who is my neighbor? Does Jesus answer this question?  If not, what question does he answer?

What are the elements of surprise in this parable?  How do the characters belie our expectations?
