Share Your ThoughtsOn this episode of Moments Almanac, we reflect on two stories connected by a common thread of compassion.Born on June 14, 1811, Harriet Beecher Stowe used her pen to awaken a nation's conscience, reminding readers of the humanity of those trapped in slavery. More than a century later, during the Titanic hearings of 1912, Second Officer Charles Lightoller spoke of "the law of human nature and Christian chivalry" as he described the principle of putting women and children first in the lifeboats.Together, these stories ask a timeless question: Will we see the needs of others above our own?Drawing from Galatians 6:2 and the example of Christ, this episode explores the Christian call to bear one another's burdens and to recognize the sacred worth of every person.Join us as we remember the people, places, and events that leave fingerprints on the soul.
