- Description:
-
Sermon start time: (Part 1) 0:02. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 25:05.
The most uncomfortable part of the Good Samaritan parable, Langford says, is dually that we are confronted with our own lack of good neighborliness, and that no one – not even the wounded person whom the Samaritan helps – is deserving of God’s grace; thus, God’s grace is uncomfortable, because we will never fully emulate it even as we are commanded to do good works through love.
