The foundation of a home determines its ability to endure the test of time. Jesus taught that our lives are the same way. In his parable of the wise and foolish builders we see how easily one’s life can be built on unstable ground. When the storms of life come, and they always do, it’s only the house on a firm foundation that will stand.

It’s easy to love people who share your beliefs, make your life easier, and are a joy to be around. But what about people who don’t fit this description? How do we love people who hold different religious positions, are impossible to please, or have nothing to offer you? How should we interact with them, if at all? The parable of the Good Samaritan decisively answers that question.
