Our solution starts Sunday

There are different types of people in the world.

Some can see a problem and walk on by. Others feel compelled to do something to be part of the solution. We have two different options when we see a problem. We can complain about it or we can figure out how to contribute positively towards making that problem go away. Let’s look at a Biblical story illustrating this point and then pick it apart for life application.

Luke 10 tells a very familiar story of the Good Samaritan – a Jewish man is beaten up, robbed and abandoned on the side of the road. Two very “religious” people walk by. Not only do they avoid helping him, but they actually distance themselves from feeling uncomfortable with the encounter by deliberately going to the other side of the road so they don’t have to get near the man. Meanwhile, a Samaritan who had most certainly his whole life been mistreated and ridiculed by Jews sees the man and offers tremendous help! (If you understand Biblical history, you will understand that Jews had zero respect for Samaritans)

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
