Kindness Campaign: Do Unto Others  

“Do to others as you would have them do to you.” Luke 6:31  

This is one of Jesus’ most powerful and impactful teachings which was profound as he taught it to his disciples and has resonated through the generations of disciples that have followed.  It has come to be known as The Golden Rule and is found in almost every world religion. We should treat others as we want them to treat us, even those with whom we disagree. The essence of this teaching is found in recognizing the dignity of one another. How we conduct our interpersonal relationship with one another matters to God. Kindness matters. This fall, we will launch a Kindness Campaign along with other churches across the nation, including Church of the Resurrection led by Rev. Adam Hamilton where this campaign has its origins. The intention of our Kindness Campaign and its core message urges us as a Christ-centered community to not lose sight of the most important message we can proclaim in these tenuous days before a national election. In these days when division can take root, we must be agents of compassion, humility, kindness, and love. Standing upon what we believe does not have to involve a rancor that further divides. Kindness creates space for understanding to take root as we consider how we want to be treated and how we will treat others. May kindness prevail and may it begin with us.
