When a crisis comes, it rarely arrives at a convenient time. And when someone we love is hurting, it can be hard to know what to say—or how to help.
In this episode, Noelle talks with Dr. John Babler, a longtime fire and police chaplain and seminary professor, about bringing the compassion of Christ into life’s hardest moments. He shares a simple, practical framework for caring well: showing compassion, serving humbly, listening attentively, and faithfully ministering God’s Word while all covered in prayer.
Whether someone is facing a major tragedy or an everyday loss, this hope-filled conversation will encourage you to be the hands and feet of Jesus and point hurting hearts toward the comfort and hope found in Christ.
