Kindness, as lived out by Jesus, presents the highest hope for a renewal of Christian civility (a renewal needed more than ever) and Christian witness.
Kindness means seeing our life in Christ being less about RESULTS and more about RELATIONAL CHARACTER.
Kindness means to trade CULTURAL WARS for the conversations filled with HOPE.
Kindness means loving even when our KINDNESS IS NOT RECEIVED.

Kindness means loving even when our KINDNESS IS NOT RECEIVED.
The Bible does not call believers to BE HARSH, yet neither does it call us to BE NICE. However, it certainly calls us to not only BE KIND, but to LOVE KINDNESS treating those with whom we disagree with charity and civility.
It’s the risk of kindness that makes this virtue so radical – LOVE NO MATTER WHAT
Our kindness will sometimes be accepted.
Our kindness will sometimes be rejected.
But, our kindness will never be forgotten.

RECEIVABLE - A FIRM CENTER WITH SOFT EDGES.
Having convictions centered in the truth of God’s Word and the courage to not waver, while being guided by civility that bears witness to the Gospel.

It’s nonsense that we can’t love someone with whom we do not agree. ACCEPTANCE IS NOT AGREEMENT.
Kindness does not mean affirming each other’s choices, but it does mean listening to each other’s voices.
If we are not receivable to those with whom we disagree, how will they ever see in us the profound, reconciling, unmerited, amazing love of Christ in you?

May we live the radical life of kindness and always work to make ourselves receivable, even when we are not received.
May we love NO MATTER WHAT.
May we love NO MATTER WHAT.
