Greatest Story Ever Told – The Good Samaritan. ep53, 480126

January 26, 2022Posted inDrama, Greatest Story
Most days, Jerusalem is a quiet town, but on a day when the Master is there, excitement is in the air. Is the message of eternal life true? Religious leaders heckle, and to answer the question of what must be done to inherit eternal life, a parable is told that becomes the feature of today’s radio drama. Love God, and love your neighbor, but who is my neighbor? Esther worries about her husband, Samuel, and the journey his to make. His son Jonathan has a suggestion, but when Samuel learns the friends are Samaritans, dad has to set his boy straight on why those darned, dirty, Samaritans are to be avoided.
A black and white photograph of Fibber McGee and Molly, a couple from a popular radio show of the same name. They are standing in front of a closet that has been opened, with clothes and other items spilling out onto the floor. Fibber is holding a mop and wearing an apron, while Molly looks on with a smile on her face. The overall effect is one of humor and domesticity, with the couple's playful antics and cluttered living space providing a snapshot of life in mid-century America in 1948.
