The Compassion-Directed Life: Extending compassion in every sphere of life

In this sermon our pastor, Ian Forest-Jones, described how the Social Justice Tradition expresses the themes of justice, compassion, and peace. It emphasises wisdom and loving-kindness to bring relationships into harmony, unity, and balance, even within our relationship to nature. The compassion-direct life engages all arenas of life, from personal to social to institutional. As with the other traditions, the actions we take are not the end goal. True compassion is motivated by a genuine heart, is empowered by the love of God, and embraces the possibility of positive change. This sermon was delivered on Sunday, 25 February 2024.
