Title:
William H. Willimon - "On the Jericho Road" (September 21, 1986)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 32:18. Sermon end time: (Part 2) 10:27.

  • Key quotation: “The story is not about how you and I can go out and be neighbors but about who is a neighbors to us.Have you ever gotten saved by someone you despised? Remember that this whole argument with the lawyer is preceded by the observation: this man this rabbi, receives sinners and eats with them; this savior welcomes prodigal sons and forgives adulterous women. Even when we hung him on a cross says “Father forgive them” this one even as he is dying promises thieves a place in paradise. The despised rejected Samaritan is Jesus." “travel has the way of putting you at the mercy…of strangers”
