Compassion*

Seeing with Jesus’ eyes 

Care about people again. Do you struggle to take an interest in other people? Is being right more important to you than caring for someone's needs? The antidote to these types of attitudes is found in the emotion that the Gospels most frequently attribute to Jesus: compassion.

But compassion is not just an emotion, and it's not an option! It's a crucial way of looking at the world with love and forgiveness—a way of seeing others as God sees them.

Here Joshua Mack gives you a theological foundation for becoming passionate about compassion. Building on the examples of Jesus and Paul, he shows you how the gospel must transform the way we see other people and provides practical steps you can take toward a compassionate lifestyle.
