How to Have Compassion and Conviction

Many Christians feel the tension between standing firm in biblical truth and showing genuine compassion to those who disagree. But what if that tension is actually by design?

In this video, Steve Wolfgang discusses what the Bible actually teaches about holding conviction and compassion together, and why abandoning either one doesn't reflect the full character of Christ (Jesus himself modeled both righteous conviction and deep compassion). Key ideas explored:

  • How do you love someone and disagree with them?
  • Not letting your relationships erode your convictions.
  • What this balance actually looks like in practice.

This isn't about being harsh. It's about being whole. A Christianity that is all warmth and no truth is sentimentality — not the gospel.
