Loving your neighbor isn't just a nice idea--it's one of Jesus's
most important commands. Dr. Emily Smith will transform your
understanding of this instruction and help you live it out in
practical, everyday ways. In recent years, disparities and
inequities have come to wider attention--including in the
church--that were created by years of oppression, suppression,
worldviews, ideologies, politics, and systemic biases. The sheer
size of the problem can feel overwhelming, and you may wonder what
you can do to make an impact. Join Dr. Emily Smith, global health
expert and creator of the popular Facebook page Friendly Neighbor
Epidemiologist, as she dives into what loving your neighbor--as
illustrated in the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan--truly
means. Combining Dr. Smith's expertise as a scientist with her deep
Christian faith and drawing from her journey from small-town Texas
to a prestigious university, The Science of the Good Samaritan
shares fascinating stories of faith at work in the Bible, in Dr.
Smith's life, and in the lives of others to show us how to: Find
shared values with those who are not like us Reach outside of our
immediate circles to bring in those on the margins Redefine our
concept of "neighbor" and love them in a more practical and global
way Finally bridge the gap of society's disparities and inequities
 Change the world by loving your neighbor.
