Almost everyone knows what a Good Samaritan is—someone who helps those in need, especially strangers. But in Jesus’ day, it was a contradiction in terms. Samaritans weren’t good; they were half-breeds and heretics. To the Jews, a Samaritan was more likely to be the villain than the hero. The Parable of the Good Samaritan is set on the Jericho Road. Finding a robbery victim there wouldn’t be unusual. A Samaritan helping such a victim would be. So, what made the Good Samaritan good? Our answer is in the subtitle: Awakening To Life’s Brutal Realities.

In Greek, the original language of the New Testament, the word for truth is aletheia, which also means reality. In the Book of John we read that Jesus referred to himself as the truth. He did not say that he knew the truth--but that he was the truth. When Jesus called himself the true bread, the true vine, and true food and drink, he was also calling himself the real bread, the real vine, and real food and drink.

Luke opens The Book of Acts with this: “The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when he was taken up to heaven, after he had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen.” (Acts 1:1-2) Luke’s Gospel documents all that Jesus began to do and teach in his physical body from his birth through his resurrection. His second account, the Book of Acts, tells what Jesus continued to do and teach through the ministry of the Holy Spirit in his new, mystical body, the Church.

The Song of Songs is the tender tale about a monarch and a maiden, a king and his captivating bride. It tells the story of the two lovers that inspired the greatest love song ever written. Viewed by some as a rather obscure book of the Bible, with eyes to see, it is perhaps the most profound book in all of Scripture that reveals the passionate, intimate, and jealous love that God has for his people. As such, it is a book to be savored, meditated upon, and experienced, because intimacy with God can be discovered individually only through life-changing, personal, one-on-one encounters with Him.

The author introduces the main theme of the book, which is the connection between Stoicism, the 12 steps, and free-range spirituality. He shares his personal story of addiction and recovery, and how he discovered the common thread that flows through these frameworks. He explains that they all emphasize acceptance, self-awareness, ethical principles, transcendence of ego, and inner transformation. He also clarifies that he is not promoting any specific religion or dogma, but rather a way of living that can help anyone find serenity in sobriety.

Role models don’t have to be rich, powerful, or famous. They don’t have to be the most attractive, wear the fanciest clothes, or drive the most expensive cars. They are as commonplace as a family member, business colleague, or even the person next door. But they represent someone very special in your life and in the lives of others.

People care so much about their popularity, their appearance, and their status. They care about what people think, whether others approve, and how they measure up. What’s more, people buy things to appear successful and even lower their personal standards to gain acceptance.

Jesus was a master storyteller, and his characters are well known, even to those who have never cracked the cover of a Bible. His famous Parable of the Prodigal Son features two sons and their father. The brothers represent the range of human behavior, from rebellious to self-righteous.
