While empathy is essential for leadership and discipleship, it often shifts from a gift to a burden when it becomes a mere slogan rather than intentional care. In "Avoiding Toxic Empathy," Allie Beth Stuckey explores how this emotional tool can be misunderstood or misused, potentially blinding us to reality and morality. By examining how empathy can inadvertently lead to callousness, this conversation challenges us to pursue a kindness that remains firmly rooted in truth. Resources:
