Join hosts Katy Reed Hoges, Luke Stehr, and Dr. Dennis Wiles as they dive deeper into the concept of mercy following Dr. Wiles' recent sermon "Flourishing in Pity." In this enlightening episode, the hosts explore the rich Biblical meaning of mercy, from its Hebrew root 'hesed' to its Greek translation 'eleos.'


Dr. Wiles breaks down how mercy is more than just feeling sorry for someone - it's an active expression of God's character and a call to action for believers. The hosts discuss practical examples of mercy through Jesus' parables of the Good Samaritan and the Unmerciful Servant, examining how these ancient stories apply to our modern lives.


Key discussion points include:

  • The relationship between mercy, grace, and love
  • How God's mercy shapes our understanding of forgiveness
  • Practical ways to demonstrate mercy in our daily lives
  • The promise that comes with being merciful
  • Building a community founded on mercy


Whether you're a long-time believer or just curious about faith, this conversation offers valuable insights into how mercy can transform both individual lives and entire communities.
