•
Pastor James Gallaher
•
Season 56

Episode 6
We often think of rest as stopping—but Jesus shows us that rest is also how we respond when someone is hurting.
In this message from the Reframing Rest series, Pastor James unpacks the story of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10 and reveals what it looks like to live with enough margin to extend mercy. Real rest isn’t selfish—it’s full of compassion, provision, and presence.
Discover how the Samaritan’s generous care models the heart of God—and how we’re called to do the same.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
- Why margin and mercy go hand-in-hand
- How generosity can create rest for others
- The connection between spiritual rest and relational compassion
- What it means to “see” others like Jesus does
📖 Key Scriptures:
- Luke 10:25–37 (The Good Samaritan)
- Isaiah 58:6–12 (True rest through justice and compassion)
- Proverbs 19:17 (Generosity to the poor as lending to the Lord)
