EP62: Compassion in Motion: the Catalyst for a Life of Transformation

Today we're exploring Matthew 5:7 – “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” This beatitude highlights a key characteristic of citizens in God's kingdom: active empathy. We’ll discuss what true mercy looks like - it's compassion in motion, not just feeling sorry for someone. We'll examine why showing mercy can be challenging, often due to judgment or pride. Finally, we'll consider how to cultivate mercy in our daily lives and why it's crucial for spiritual growth. In a world quick to judge, choosing mercy can be transformative.
