  • Compassion
In this provocative eassy on that least undestood virtue, compassion, the authors challenge themselves ans us wtih these questions: Where do we palce compassion in our lives? Is it enough to live a life in which we hurt one another as little as possible? Is our guiding ideal a life of maximum pleasure ans minimum pain? Compassion answers no.
After years of study ans discussion among themselves, with other religious, ans with men and women at the very center of national politics, the authors now look at compassion with a vigorous new perspective. They place compassion at the heart of Christian life in a world governed far too long by principles of power and destructive control. Compassion, no longer merely an eraser of human mistakes, is a force of prayer and action - the expression of God's love for us and our love for Him and one another.
Compassion ia a book that says no to a compassion of guilt and failure ans yes to a compassionate love tha pervades our spirit and moves us to action.
