Season 5 Episode 33 - IN HIS IMAGE: Compassion

Join Rick for the 11th episode of the series IN HIS IMAGE. When you hear the cares and concerns of others, do you enter into their reality, or do you keep your distance (however subtly)? When a conniving Pharisee asks Jesus about the “most important” commandment, Jesus tells him what he already knows—“Love the Lord your God with all your heart…”—but then adds a second “equally important” commandment: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Here we explore what it means to treat our neighbor’s concerns and struggles and pain is if they were our concerns and struggles and pain.
