Can Empathy Actually Be a Sin?

from Founders Baptist Church · host Richard Caldwell Jr.

This episode explores the tension between modern cultural empathy and biblical compassion. We discuss whether empathy can become sinful when it is untethered from the truth of Scripture, effectively affirming people in destructive behaviors. Using examples like the gender identity craze and the woman at the well, we define true Christian love as that which is tender hearted yet unwavering in speaking the truth. We conclude that genuine love warns of danger and calls for repentance rather than simply validating feelings that contradict God's Word.
