Kindness and goodness are closely intertwined, both reflecting a deliberate, outward-looking compassion—a willingness to notice need and actively move toward it. This Sunday, in our series, "Man or woman in the mirror," we’ll explore what that looks like in practice through one of Jesus’ most well-known parables, a vivid picture of kindness in action that challenges both our assumptions and our responses to others. Along the way, we’ll also lift our eyes to the greater reality it reflects: the perfect kindness and goodness of God toward us.
