Dr. Ray Self will discuss the gift of compassion, which happens to be one of the most misunderstood. In this show, he will explain what this gift is, what it is not, its strengths and weaknesses. Studies have shown that over 35% of the body of Christ has this gift. However, this gift is often misused and misunderstood. This show is significant for anyone who knows someone with the gift of compassion or has this gift themselves.  Mat_12:7  "But if you had known what this means, 'I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT A SACRIFICE,' you would not have condemned the innocent.  The  International College of Ministry is now enrolling at www.icmcollege.org/enroll  Click here to purchase Dr. Self's book – Hear His Voice, Be His Voice, or visit Amazon.com.  Check out our new store at – www.icmcollege.org/merch   Click here to purchase Dr. Self's book – Redeeming Your Past and Finding Your Promised Land, or visit Amazon.com.  Follow and subscribe to Self Talk With Dr. Ray Self at our podcast website  - https://www.icmcollege.org/selftalk.     Or our new podcast website at https://www.buzzsprout.com/2249804     Help Dr. Self continue this show - partner at www.icmcollege.org/donate   For show topic suggestions, email Dr. Ray Self at [email protected]  Enjoy free courses offered by the International College of Ministry Free Courses  Show host bio -  Dr. Ray Self founded Spirit Wind Ministries Inc. and the International College of Ministry.
