Chapter 14: Compassion and Promises

If you want an image of a powerful yet caring and personal God then the story of Mephibosheth is tremendous. David exemplifies a king who is powerful, who keeps his promises, welcomes us to his table to eat with his family, and gently embraces us in all our weaknesses. Every day. 

And it is supremely demonstrated in the cross of Christ and the night before when Jesus and his disciples gathered around a table. Jesus broke bread and got them to share a cup of wine, giving them a clear image of his body and blood, about to be broken and spilled the very next day. He gathered them around a table. Like a lamb being slaughtered he was to offer himself up as an innocent sacrifice. This should be seen in contrast to his bravery and greatness. God became a man and humbled himself, even to death on a cross. 

We also consider three marks of a compassionate leadership.
