When is doing good not good enough? When does doing outreach actually do harm? In the vein of When Helping Hurts, Wesley Furlong's Smart Compassion calls Christians to strategic, prayerful, and biblically based approaches to compassion. With evangelical Anabaptist conviction and psychology-informed insight, Furlong guides readers through three aspects of smart compassion needed for the flourishing of families and neighborhoods: community empowerment, radical hospitality, and healing presence. Discover wise strategies that bring Jesus' love to your neighbors. Shift your paradigm from fixing everybody's problems to loving, listening, discerning, and responding. Learn to suffer with someone without burning out. For anyone who wants to make a difference but doesn't know how, Smart Compassion offers a contagious vision and practical steps for real change.
