The Splendid Samaritan: Overcoming Tribalism (Message 3: Provocative Stories)
How do you view people who are different from you? This is an important question given the racial tensions that came to the forefront in events that took place in Ferguson and Boston, the heated debates about same-sex marriage, the growing tensions between Christians and Muslims, and the deeply divided politics in America. How do you see LGBT people, poor people, people of other religions, or someone of a different race? Should we divide the world up into insiders and outsiders, so that we only have moral obligations to insiders? In this message, Pastor Mark Reynolds teaches the story of the Good Samaritan to tackle the problem of tribalism and our tendency to erase the identity of those who are different.
