The Good Samaritans

Most Christians rarely question the rhythms that shape their worship. They follow familiar patterns, trusting that sincerity and faithfulness are enough. In The Good Samaritans, John Miller asks a quiet but compelling question: what if they aren't? What if the structures we've inherited are forming us in ways we never intended? Drawing from Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4:20-24, Miller explores how centuries of history, culture, and tradition can shift worship from its original design. Her question was not simply about place, but about a life shaped by inheritance--now confronted with truth. Jesus answers not with rebuke, but with revelation. That order--revelation before obedience--becomes the foundation of this book. This is not a call to abandon tradition, but to examine it with honesty and humility. With a pastoral and thoughtful voice, Miller honors sincere faith while inviting deeper reflection. For those wrestling with the gap between inherited practice and genuine encounter with God, The Good Samaritans offers clarity, depth, and a path toward worship in spirit and truth.
