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.

Dawn of Grace - Mary Magdalene's...

Jill Eileen Smith

She's been pulled up from the depths of despair--but what happens when the hope she has found slips from her grasp? 
 
From her earliest days, Mary Magdalene has known fear and loss at a level so deep she has no hope of surfacing. Bound to the demons within her and incapable of freeing herself, Mary walks in shadow--until one day she encounters a healer, a rabbi who is radically different from the religious leaders and family members who could do nothing to help her. One touch from Jesus and Mary is never the same. 
 
Now Mary's one mission in life is to serve the one who freed her. She is determined never to leave his side, fearing that if she loses him, she'll return to her former bondage. Even when the unthinkable happens and her savior is arrested and sentenced to execution, she cannot abandon him as so many others did. Let her be buried in his tomb, for she cannot live without him. 
 
On the brink of despair, Mary is about to discover that while the life of faith is never perfect, perfect love casts out fear--and Jesus makes all things new.

Carrying Hope - Expecting Death...

Beth Appleby

Carrying Hope is the heartfelt and deeply vulnerable story of a pregnancy destined to end in death by the medical world, but for which God had other plans. 
Pete Greig says 'An Intensely personal, deeply moving story of hope in the face of despair. '  
At a routine scan for Beth’s third child, critical concerns were raised about the baby’s health, and further tests signalled a life-limiting genetic condition. Consultants diagnosed a series of devastating abnormalities and considered the baby too small to survive outside the womb, confronting Beth and her husband with a series of heart-breaking decisions. 
Through months of uncertainty and doubt, strengthened daily by God’s Word, they chose to persevere in hope even as they prepared for the worst. Yet this pregnancy would have an extraordinary outcome nobody could have predicted, and would be a testimony to how God can walk with us through even the darkest times. 
‘Hope, courage, and a deep, abiding love shine forth from this powerful story.’ 
Vicky Wall, Every Life Counts
