Ep #15: Stewards care about and for the Vulnerable
Manage episode 407292050 series 3559344
Almost daily, we are inundated with images of poverty that can desensitize us to the vulnerable in our midst. Often, instead of taking steps towards the vulnerable, sadly we can move away. However, throughout Scripture we see that God loves the vulnerable and wants to show his kindness towards them.
The Bible highlights four groups of people that are especially vulnerable: the poor, the foreigner/migrant, the widow, and the orphan. As Christians, and as the church, we must be conduits of God's grace towards the vulnerable.
Join Spencer and Austin as they discuss the parable of the Good Samaritan and what it means for stewards to care about and for the vulnerable.
