Summary
In this Gospel we see the rare occasion of a scribe not trying to trap Jesus, but rather asking a sincere question. We are called to live out the commandments which are summed up in two commands, love of God, love of neighbor. This packet also contains a lesson on the importance of love, and how love differs from the theological supernatural virtue of charity.
