Who is My Neighbor? - Kim Butcher

  • Summary

  • Watch Kim's teaching as she emphasized how important it us to show love and compassion to people in need, drawing on the story of the Good Samaritan. She encouraged us to pause and think about who our neighbors are and how we could show them love through simple acts of kindness and hospitality.


    Key Takeaways:

    1. We are called to be witnesses of Christ in the world around us, just as the disciples were. This means having compassion and love for those in our community, not avoiding or ignoring them.
    2. Jesus is the greatest example of compassion - he met people right where they were, loved them, and his presence changed their lives. We are called to do the same for our "neighbors", whoever that may be.
    3. It can be challenging to have compassion and see the needs of others, as we often have our own struggles and put up blinders. But we need to be aware of this tendency and ask God to open our eyes.
    4. The parable of the Good Samaritan teaches that our "neighbor" is anyone God brings across our path, even if they are different from us or we are uncomfortable. We are called to show them mercy and care.
    5. Kim challenged us to practice hospitality and witness to our community this week - whether that's inviting someone for coffee, having a family over, or simply being aware and open to connecting with those God places in our path. This requires boldness, but God will provide you grace to walk it out.
