Following the parable of the Good Samaritan, this message teaches us that we have a mission and that mission is to radically love all our neighbors, no matter the cost. But we are not to love out of guilt or duty, but only because of the radical grace that has been generously bestowed on each and every one of us though Christ.

God provides us with work and money, but it is so easy for us to become greedy with our money without even recognizing it as we let money become the source of security and significance in our lives. Is there a solution to this problem? Yes, but only as we let Jesus be the one we ultimately work for and let him be our only source of security and significance.
