When It's Not Happening to You--Developing Compassion
Description
Everyone gets a turn in the rotation of painful situations, but there are varying degrees of trouble, big and small. When we haven’t been through the fire, we may have a hard time understanding the painful burns of extreme loss.
When the trouble is not in our lives, it takes intentional effort to have compassion, empathy, and true concern. This episode considers three ways that God increases our compassion for others, with the goal of becoming better about caring about others.
"But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies." (Lamentations 3:32 )
