called “boul-

millions of years as rock calved
off a limestone ridge, creating
a vast jumble of boulders 30
and 40 feet high. Tommy and a
friend spent all their free time
climbing among those rocks —
evenings, weekends, even over-
night in winter “to see what we
adventure,” his climbing buddy
said. “Nature was our church,
basically, and that’s what we
held sacred.”
It could be said that the
extreme risk/reward challenge
he found in bouldering was
what he sought in everything
he did. “He was the bravest.

Let the code of JeSus be a guide
I am confused. There are approximately
twelve to fourteen churches in this beautiful little
community of Newcastle. My hope, because I
am tending to my own flock on Sunday mom-
ings and do not hear other pastor’s messages,
is that we are all sharing not only a message of
salvation, but one of grace, too. In the United
Methodist Church, our founder John Wesley
had three simple rules to guide us on our path to
spiritual maturity.
These are: Stay in Love with God, Do Go d
and Do No Harm. I ‘
My confusion is that by the message of
’Gospel, Jesus’ actions and teachings again
again show care toward one another. This is a
core Christian value I think we can all agree on-
caring for one another. The church loses its way
when it loses Jesus.
I am confused when we, baptized into
Christian community, cry foul when we are
being invited to care for one another. What does
it look like in Jesus’ eyes to be a follower of God,

a care-er of people? There, there is no confusion.
We find this lesson in the gracious story of the
Good Samaritan. Jews and Samaritans were
age-old religious enemies when the Samaritan
took that man out of the ditch, when his own
people would not. He wrapped his wounds and
tended them with a balm, paid for his continued
care, came back to check on him a few days later
and to pay up for any extra charges for his care.
This man was his religious sworn enemy, whom
he tended.
How will we measure up with the story
of the Good Samaritannwhen all is said and
done. Because these cfises we find ourselves
in will come to pass, let’s remember to ask
ourselves: What will we be left with after
the crisis? Will we find ourselves standing
dignified in the ways of Jesus Christ? I pray we
will. Because there is no confusion, I pray we
will. God bless you in your work toward, and
in, the amazing abundance of the kingdom of
God.
