This post from Eric Johnson at the Desiring God blog is another great reminder that we actually have to interact with our neighbors if we are to obey Jesus Christ’s command to love our neighbors as ourselves. After a triple homicide at a local grocery market he says,
“A colleague and I went to the candlelight vigil the community held for these men, and I was struck with how little I really knew about these men and the thousands of East African immigrants in my community. I had passed this market dozens of times and never stopped in. Surely, at least once, I could have purchased a Coke and struck up a conversation?”
