Not ideal.\nApparently, telling people that not all compassion is helpful raises… a few follow-up questions. So here we are.\nIn Part 2, we’re getting practical:\n What does real, biblical mercy actually look like when things are messy?\n How do you help someone without becoming their spiritual life-support machine?\n And how do you speak truth in love without immediately becoming “that guy” in every group chat?\nSo if Part 1 made you slightly uncomfortable… good news—\n we’re just getting started."}
