Humanize - A Fire and an Eyedropper Overwhelming is right! How can anyone deal with all the disasters, problems and hurt of the people they know, let alone what their Facebook feed and cable news shows them. Turning a blind eye helps us cope, but it seems to diminish our humanity at the same time. So what are we supposed to do with this world full of hurt? Well, we don’t have an answer for that, but we can say more than ‘give up.’ This is a conversation to have together. Thanks for being with us today.
Here are responses that we got from folks who were gathered at field for this message:

Humanize: What Only You Can Do

If being compassionate just fit into our busy lives it would be so much easier. But like most truly human capacities it isn’t that convenient. Compassion asks us to dig deeply and make bigger choices than our calendars and the extra couple of dollars in our wallets. Compassion asks for you. So who are you? Not just what can you do, but what can only you do? Let’s talk about how we live into the compassion that expresses the depth of our humanity.

Humanize: The Battle for Your Humanity
Sunday Sep 10, 2017
Sunday Sep 10, 2017
Humanize - The Battle for Your Humanity Try out this idea: ‘Your capacity for compassion is the measure of your humanity.’ Think about that for a while and if you agree, then consider your life and priorities. Is there room for compassion? This is not a guilt thing, this is a growth thing. Compassion is hard. It is more than being tender hearted, but it’s not being a caped crusader fixing the world’s ills either. So what is it? This message talks about it and expands our hopes for our humanity along with it.

Feeling the knot of stress in your gut already as you try to figure out how are you going to balance it all this year? Ok, if Jacob’s Well’s job is to help us look at life in a bigger, 3rd sort of way, then we need it as we look at our fall schedule too. What if we were to tell you balance isn’t all it’s cracked up to be and that you don’t have to chase it? Interested?
