This Week: The Secret You: Compassion (Jon Harvey): We looked at two great stories tonight:1. The woman caught in adultery that is brought before Jesus with condemning voices all about calling for her death.
2. The classic Good Samaritan.
In both of these stories we saw the revolutionary manner in which Jesus saw the law, respected the law and exercised compassion, grace and mercy. When that stuff gets in you...you change. You cannot stay the same as you once did. Being compassionate to those around greatly helps them but it also helps the people around them and ... YOU.
Now the stretch is to try and transform the secret compassion in me (and you) and transform it into something public.
