They explore how Jesus addressed this entrenched division—not with judgment or vengeance, but with radical compassion and love. Drawing from biblical history, including the Parable of the Good Samaritan and Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well, they illustrate how the gospel calls for reconciliation and unity across all cultural and racial divides.
