Empathy is an emotional way of relating to people. It is essential to leadership and discipleship, yet at times, it stops being a gift and starts being a burden. Empathy has become a talking point for slogans rather than intentional care for others.
In her talk from the 2025 THINQ Summit in Nashville, Allie Beth Stuckey unpacks how empathy can be powerful, but also misused or misunderstood. This can blind us to reality and morality. At its best, empathy can lead to kindness, but too often it can make us calloused.
If you want to lead with grace and wisdom, this conversation is for you.
