Fall Series, Part 6, "Compassion"
In this sixth installment of the Eight Pillars of Enduring Joy series, Rev. Kristin Powell explores compassion as both a practice and a way of being, drawing from the wisdom of Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama's Book of Joy. Rev. Kristin Powell highlights two transformative truths - that self-centered thinking is the source of suffering, while compassionate concern for others is the source of happiness - and shares the powerful story of Anthony Hinton, who found joy on death row through serving others. She invites us to reach across divides with grace, reminding us that compassion is contagious and ripples outward to heal our communities.
