Paperback. A Good Samaritan is the first widely distributed Christian curriculum explaining Christian social responsibility and justice, a topic that has been building a great deal of buzz within the ranks of Church leadership, but has not yet ignited - as an action based movement - the people who matter the most .the millions of potential Good Samaritans sitting in the pews. The time is Now. These six dynamic sessions cover issues like poverty, AIDS, racism, genocide, child slavery, the disenfranchised (widows, orphans, and the disabled), caring for the environment, and the dynamic impact a single Samaritan can make. Hosting each of the six sessions will be John Ortberg. This curriculum will also feature global leaders like Gary Haugen, Shane Claiborne, Brenda Salter-McNeil, Bishop John Rucyahana (Rwanda), Bishop Desmond Tutu, Chuck Colson, Zach Hunter, and many others.These presenters and other participants, both known and unknown, will be woven into each session, creating a fabric composed of topical experts, theologians, front-line workers, victims, encouragers, first-timers - so that those viewing can get a complete picture of the challenges and an understanding of how they can get involved - right where they live. This title features 6 sessions. Features six dynamic sessions, this title helps Christians explore the critical social needs facing our 'neighbors' and be challenged to become a Good Samaritan right where they live. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
