General Notes

Note

Luke 10:25-37 Expanded Wall Label: As the sun looms, casting shadow, oil and wine pour from the hands of the Samaritan. It is not that the others were bad. It is not that they had no reason. But good knows no excuse; from these hands of good come that which supercedes the powers of culture and man-made boundaries. And we are commanded: "Go and do likewise."
