When Joey received a call from a friend who tragically lost her son, he asked himself, “What if it was my son?”—a way of stepping into her shoes to offer support. On this episode, the four hosts, Joey Svendsen, Jack Hoey III, Lynne Stroy, and Tomelex Copeland discuss how helpful this method is to truly empathize with someone.  The four also reflect on scientific research regarding human beings' incapacity to deeply care about pain experienced by humans around the world, and that it may even be unhealthy to attempt. Lastly, the four unpack and process a few racial conflicts they’ve experienced in their day to day.  Be a Patron of the podcastto support Seacoast ministries in local prisons.  On this Episode: Tomelex Copeland / Jack Hoey III / Lynne Stroy / Joey SvendsenWe have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.
