Episode 2: Advent 2020 - Who is my neighbour?

Hi everyone,

Welcome to the Advent 2020 miniseries: "who is my neighbour?" This is a new miniseries based on the Parable of the Good Samaritan from Luke's Gospel, chapter 10 verse 25 - 37.

This is the main solo episode of this series. In it I go through the text in detail and have a look at what this particular set of narratives offers us as we grapple with the question of "'How can I be more neighbourly?".

There are three further episodes in this miniseries, two of which have guest/s joining me in conversation around questions that have arisen as I have wrestled with this particular piece of text. Timothy Victor, from Urban Mystic, joins me to discuss the question of institutional religion raised by the Priest and Levite in the parable; and Dr Dion Forster, from Stellenbosch University, and John Van De Laar, from wwww.evofaith.com, join me to discuss our digital lives and how we can practice being more neighbourly online. The final session is a short solo wrap up looking at Jesus as our neighbour.

Listen out for my surprise guest on this episode - Chrissie the Christmas Cricket. You get 10 points if you spot him/her first.

I'd love to hear your thoughts or comments on this miniseries. You can contact me at either
