Empathy is Preferred Over Sympathy
Why God teaches "empathy" and not "sympathy" among believers. Often believers don't want to connect in a very real way so they express sympathy, it makes them feel better that they "cared" but it offers little to the hurting person. Empathy can feel what the other person is feeling, being able to adequately comfort the hurting individual.
