Simple Compassion
Devotions to Make a Difference in Your Neighborhood and Your World
by Keri Wyatt Kent (Zondervan, 2009)

“Let people see your faith lived out. Shining is not, apparently, only about giving a verbal witness. With our words, we often find ourselves pulled into arguments. Our goal seems to be to recruit people or to change them rather than just to love them. God calls us to love people so that He can change them. Just as important, so that He can change us.” —Keri Wyatt Kent, from the book
