The Good Samaritan is a first-of-its-kind catechism written specifically for young people (ages 6-12) to communicate the unchanging truths of the Orthodox faith in the most accessible and engaging way. This book catechism follows the patristic model of sin as illness, Christ as the medicine, and the church as the hospital for the healing of the soul.
The introduction and 13 interrelated chapters form a perfect kid-friendly catechism for use with priests, Sunday school teachers, and parents. Chapters can be taken in one at a time, as brief lessons or as bedtime story listening. It may also be used as part of a homeschooling curriculum.
In the catechism we are taken from life in paradise (Lesson 1), through the fall of Adam (Lesson 2) and the reality of sin (Lesson 3), and into life and redemption through Jesus Christ (Lesson 4). In the church (Lesson 5), we then encounter holy tradition (Lesson 6), the dynamic "river" that runs through the midst of the church and provides the living water for thirsty souls. The treasure of holy tradition then presents the holy mysteries of the priesthood (Lesson 7), the eucharist (Lesson 8), and baptism (Lesson 9), along with repentance and confession (Lesson 10), all of which are essential for the health and salvation of our souls. Finally, prayer (Lesson 11), fasting (Lesson 12), and almsgiving (Lesson 13) are shown to be the indispensable means of union with God and as life-giving manifestations of faith, hope, and love.
The text brings together Father Michael Shanbour's many years of work and interaction with young people (particularly preteen children) as a youth director and priest, for the purpose of sharing the fundamental truths of the faith as taught and lived out in the Orthodox Christian Church.
