The Gospel According to Scrooge: Compassion by Don Campbell

At the beginning of "A Christmas Carol" the character of Ebeneezer Scrooge is introduced as a man whose heart has become so hardened  that he is characterized by a complete indifference to the suffering of others.  He holds all of humanity in disdain and exhibits that by not showing compassion for anyone; not for his family, not for his employee, not for the poor, nor for the lame.

After his transforming experience we see evidence of a changed heart by the way he shows compassion to others.  Compassion is the heart of Jesus.
