Compassion - The Heart of...

Esther Jameson

Compassion is a fundamental human quality, one that transcends individual differences and connects us to one another in profound ways. It is often described as the ability to feel and show concern for the suffering of others, accompanied by a desire to alleviate that suffering. At its core, compassion involves recognizing the pain or distress someone else is experiencing and responding with kindness, empathy, and support. This emotional response is not just about feeling for someone else; it is about acting in ways that may help them through their difficult times.
The essence of compassion lies in empathy, which is the ability to deeply understand and share the feelings of another. When we empathize with someone, we can put ourselves in their shoes, imagining their emotional and physical states. Compassion takes this a step further, as it compels us to act in a way that can alleviate or ease their suffering. It is more than simply being moved by someone’s pain; it is the drive to do something about it, whether through words of encouragement, acts of service, or offering comfort.
It is important to distinguish compassion from sympathy. Sympathy involves feeling pity or sorrow for someone else's misfortune, but it lacks the proactive component that characterizes compassion. While sympathy may evoke a response such as feeling sad for someone, compassion urges us to take action in a positive way. Compassion connects us to others through action and intention, and it is through this action that we create genuine bonds and meaningful relationships.

Liturgy in the Wilderness - How...

D. J. Marotta, Justin Earley

What you pray . . . shapes what you believe . . . shapes how you live.The Lord’s Prayer is a beautiful, subversive passage of words given to the church by Jesus. It forms our imaginations and—given time—transforms us. And today, we are in desperate need of renewed imaginations. Christians are living in a wilderness of secularism. The historic Christian faith is seen as absurd at best and dangerously oppressive at worst. Followers of Jesus must begin to imagine life as a faithful minority who are ever seeking to subvert what is evil with good, what is hateful with love, what is corrosive with nurture.In Liturgy in the Wilderness, Anglican priest D. J. Marotta shows how the Lord’s Prayer provides a framework in our secular age for understanding, believing, and living in light of Jesus Christ. When we pray the Lord’s Prayer, we’re planting seeds that can split concrete. We’re dripping water that can wear away granite. We’re shifting spiritual tectonic plates that lie deep beneath culture, society, and the depths of our own hearts. When we pray the Lord’s Prayer, our imaginations are stirred, moved, and transformed. We’re taken apart and put back together. We’re stripped of our idols, addictions, and false hopes. We’re offered new words of trust and mission. And we begin to see the world differently—the way Jesus saw it.With this book, Marotta awakens our hearts to the beauty, sustaining power, and bounty of the Lord’s Prayer and shows us how to live faithfully in the wilderness.
