Sermon Rewind 9/9/12 - Reversing Elitist Perspective


Luke 10:33

New International Version (NIV)
33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him.


Bethany Anderson went deeper into the Image series uncovering a well-meaning form of prejudice: helping the needy out of a sense of elitism.  In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus subtly points out that it is not the case that "we" must help/save "them."  Bethany took us on her own journey learning that GOD desires for us to engage the immigrant as an equal - a friend, a helper, or even a hero (like the hated Samaritan), rather than as a charity case.
