The Sin of Empathy: Dr. Joe Rigney Interview
Episode description
In this episode of the Westminster Effects Doxology Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Joe Rigney, Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College and author of the provocative new book, The Sin of Empathy: Compassion and Its Counterfeits. Dr. Rigney unpacks his controversial take on empathy, exploring how it can be wielded as a tool of manipulation rather than a virtue, and how Christians can discern true compassion from its counterfeits in today’s culture. Join us for a deep dive into theology, emotion, and the challenges of loving well in a world obsessed with feelings.
