Empathy: Love and Life Beyond Self

"Don't do for me, that which I can do for myself. Do for me what I am incapable of doing for myself." This is the heart cry of someone who is struggling with life's problems. This is what God did through Jesus Christ when He set aside His glory, entered into the reality of His creation, and provided a path of reconciliation for you. This is empathy. Here, Kenneth E Rupert examines the depths of empathy to reveal why it is such a rare quality. Empathy requires you to model God's actions towards mankind by voluntarily setting aside your standing, status, or station, entering into the reality of someone who is struggling with life's problems, and creating the environment for that person's restoration. Throughout this book, you will learn how to order your life to become a person of empathy. You will be challenged to step into someone's life and offer the four actions of empathy. You will also learn how to live life beyond yourself by being a conduit for God's resources to flow through you for the benefit and growth of others.
