This week on our radio show, A Place Missionaries Call Home, Joyce and I will be talking with co-author, Karen Mulder, about her book, The Compassionate Congregation, a handbook for people who care. In one of the chapters, we explore with her how to recognize and help someone who we care about through “burnout.” Joyce will also share about a missionary mom who struggled with burnout and how God used her as a compassionate listener, taking this lady to the Lord in prayer.

Mrs. Mulder shares the three principles of care giving, like the verse found in Jude 22, “and some having compassion, making a difference.” Karen has a wonderful gift of making you feel special and brings compassion to everyone she meets. She is a prayer warrior and loves people.
