Besides Mr. Rogers, the lawyer from Luke 10 is probably the most famous individual to ask “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus saw through the question, and flipped it on its head, asking instead, “Which person proved to be a neighbor?”
Isn’t this the only question that really matters? Our neighborly attitude shouldn’t be limited by culture or race, but by bandwidth. In other words, am I showing kindness and love and charity to as many people as possible, or only those I feel are worthy of it?

CloseIn all my years of church going and church preaching, I have never -- in my life -- heard a sermon about Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. Why is that? Sure, there's not a lot of info about him, but he's just as important to the story as Mary is (within reason). Moreover, Joseph is called a "righteous man" -- one of only 13 people in the entire Bible to have such a designation. There is obviously something we can learn from his life, otherwise he wouldn't be a part of Scripture. Especially if we want to be righteous as well.
