Abstract:
Redefines the notion of extravagance by using the parable of the Good Samaritan to demonstrate how to live a truly compassionate and selfless life of giving freely without expecting anything in return. Drawing on the parable of the Good Samaritan, Pastor Brady Boyd encourages us to stop living a life driven by selfish desire and start building lasting relationships that will be spiritually fulfilling. Discover how to begin this transformation by ceasing to be a passerby and become one who pauses in the course of daily life. By embracing the spirit of generosity, he shows us that the path to a happier life is by living closer to God's vision and building a community that will be there in times of need.
