5 Radical Shifts From Comfort to Compassion: How to Love Like Jesus

We all love comfort. There’s a specific kind of “game changer” satisfaction in finally replacing a sixteen-year-old mattress with one that actually supports your soul.

In those moments, it feels like a slice of heaven. But here is the danger: Comfort can become a blindfold.

To truly Love Like Jesus, we have to move from the safety of the recliner to the courage of kingdom-shaped compassion.
