I went over to Georgetown to meet with the theater manager today and when I got back to get in my car there was a guy whose car was stalled–dead battery. As you know, I’m part of the junky car club. Our 95 Taurus has probably needed 25+ jump starts over the years. So I know the awkward feeling of trying to get people to help, so I offered before he even asked. He was incredibly grateful.

It was such a great reminder to me that kindness is such a simple way to share our faith. To be honest–I’m too busy or too distracted most of the time to see the opportunities that are all around me. But a simple jump start turned into a great conversation. I actually invited the guy to our new location in Georgetown and I think he may show up.

How much impact would we have if we simply played the part of the good samaritan?
