We welcome you to our service from Heart Prague!

In recent weeks, social media has been filled with pain: wars in Ukraine and Israel, the tragic death of Iryna Zarutska, and the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk. What hurt me most was not only the violence, but the celebration of it—people mocking, judging, canceling. The rise of indifference and hate shows how sick hearts can become. Yet Jesus said the enemy is not people but the devil, who comes to steal and destroy. Christ came to bring life, peace, and hope.
So how do we respond? With a Christ-centered approach: pray, guard your heart, be bold, share the Gospel with compassion.
In Luke 10, an expert asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus told the story of a man beaten by robbers. A respected priest and a Levite saw him but passed by. Only a Samaritan—despised by Jews—stopped, cared for him, and paid the cost. Jesus’ point: the real question is not “Who is my neighbor?” but “How can I be a neighbor?”
This parable challenges us today. On social media, the priest is the one posting judgmental messages, more interested in looking righteous than showing mercy. The Levite is the one scrolling past suffering, thinking “not my problem.” But the Samaritan is the one who steps in, defends the attacked, and brings encouragement instead of hate. In daily life it is the same: some hide behind religion, others look away from injustice, but followers of Jesus are called to compassion that costs something.
To be a neighbor means more than feelings. It means listening when others are in pain, speaking truth when silence would be easier, and crossing barriers of politics, culture, or belief to show Christ’s love. This is not weakness—it is the power of the Gospel. The blood of martyrs becomes the seed of the church, and what the enemy means for evil God can turn for good.
Let us not grow cold or indifferent. Refuse to join the wave of hate. Instead, pray, act, and show mercy. The world needs neighbors who heal wounds and point to the hope we have in Jesus.
