Have We Lost Compassion?

Summary

The sermon explores the dual nature of human impulse, contrasting empathy and altruism with selfishness and egocentricity, as exemplified by the "She Deserve the Purse" trend. This trend, which began with selfless acts of support for mothers, devolved into a selfish treasure hunt, highlighting the societal "crisis of empathy" discussed in Romans 7. The takeaway is to be mindful of these opposing forces within ourselves and to actively choose empathy and selfless service towards others.
