Rod VanSolkema
Sermon Application Questions
Read Luke 10:25-37
Rod defined service as: to disadvantage ourselves for the advantage of others.*What are the ways the good Samaritan disadvantaged himself for the benefit of another? What might these acts of kindness look like for us today? How might we practically love God by loving our neighbor?
Rod gave the example of early Christians fasting from their food so that it could be given to the poor and needy which demonstrates service. How might we as a collective body disadvantage ourselves for the benefit of others today?
Rod described Jesus as a good Samaritan given that he found us in a ditch and we experienced the goodness of Jesus. What did this look like in your own life? How might being reminded of this affect your openness to serving others?
