Empathy is more than compassion and is critical to our well-being. In this episode, Dr. Ray discusses this crucial issue. This show will discuss how empathy is vital for our quality of life, even though it is severely lacking in our current Christian culture.

Empathy is the ability to sincerely care for and share the burdens of others. However, many have slipped and fallen far away from this aspect of love. Loving and doing good is not enough without empathy.

Isa 53:4  Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted. 

Gal 6:2  Bear one another's burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
