HEAR it on Sunday. USE it on Monday.

On Sunday Pastor Michael shared a story he heard Friday morning on National Public Radio. You can listen to his sermon here. A story that brought new meaning to Jesus' command - "If someone takes the shirt off your back, give him your coat as well." Matthew 5:38-42.

The story is called "A Victim Treats His Mugger Right" - if you didn't hear it, take a moment and read that story - you can find it by clicking here. Essentially, the victim of a mugging treats his assailant to dinner and walks away with the weapon in his own hand.

What does it mean to treat people with the compassion that Jesus commands us? In what ways does this challenge your understanding of following Jesus?
