This week on By His Grace, Lauren Casper and I talk about loving our neighbors in a broken messed up world. .  Lauren believes by having empathy we can truly love others. Some key takeaways: * Hurt people hurt people. * People act unloving because they feel they have been unloved. * Loving your enemies doesn’t mean we have to keep those people close to us. * Healthy boundaries are key. * Running toward forgiveness when you’ve been hurt. * How do we love our neighbors? * Empathy shows us how to love others. * Loneliness and isolation.
