Endorsements for Simple Compassion:“True devotionals are not just books filled with fluffy stories and neat anecdotes, but books that should stir us to devote our lives to something bigger than ourselves. Here is a devotional that will not just warm your heart, but will actually break your heart with the things that break God’s. Simple Compassion is a weekly reminder that things are not right in the world, that this matters to God, and, perhaps strangest of all, that God doesn’t want to change the world without us.” —
Shane Claiborne, author, activist, and recovering sinner “Keri's journey of compassion is truly reflective of a woman who wants to impact her community and her world. Throughout these devotionals, Keri tells the story of many courageous people who have made bold choices to live a lifestyle of compassion and justice. I think these stories will stir others to do the same.” —
Heather Larson, Director of Compassion and Justice Ministries, Willow Creek Community Church “In an age that wrongly separates devotion to God (Mary) from serving others (Martha), here are thought-provoking, weekly digestible morsels to cultivate the compassion of Jesus in your heart and move it into your hands.” —
Jan Johnson, author of Growing Compassionate Kids and Invitation to the Jesus Life
