ONE Neighbor

Kingdom love crosses the road.

Kingdom mission isn't merely telling people about Jesus; it means becoming the kind of people who love like Jesus.

The priest and Levite both see the wounded man, but seeing doesn't become compassion. The Samaritan sees him and moves toward him. He interrupts his schedule, crosses social boundaries, gets his hands dirty, spends his resources, and takes responsibility for someone else's wellbeing.

This gives you an opportunity to broaden evangelism into Kingdom presence and compassion. Reaching Rapid City isn't simply getting more people into The Foundry. It means The Foundry increasingly becoming a blessing to Rapid City.

The question isn't merely, “Who is my neighbor?”

The better Kingdom question is: “Who can I become a neighbor to?”
