The Compassionate Ones

Everybody loves the idea of compassion… until compassion becomes costly. In Part 8 of The Ones, Pastor Pete walks through Acts 11:27–30 and shows how the early church in Antioch responded to a coming famine with sacrificial generosity and gospel-centered compassion.This message explores: Compassion Sees, Compassion Shares, and Compassion Sends. Along the way, we examine the powerful true story of Father Damien and the leper colony on Molokaʻi, the generosity of the first Gentile church, and ultimately the greatest example of costly compassion ever shown… Jesus Christ Himself.Compassion is more than emotion. Compassion moves. Compassion sacrifices. Compassion acts.
