"Carol Slager, director of congregational life and education at Modesto (Calif.) CRC, taught a 10-week adult Sunday school class on compassion last fall. She used The Compassionate Congregation as well as 90% of Helping Is Just Showing Up by Rev. James R. Kok (also published by Faith Alive).
"We found Rev. Kok's course to be very helpful," Slager said, "especially the chapter on whether we're 'players' or 'umpires.' It challenged us to be slower to make judgment calls and quicker to come alongside people."..."
