REV. DON BEATY

​​"KINDNESS AND COMPASSION: NAVIGATING A HARD WORLD WITH A SOFT HEART"

 

In May of this year, Rev. Don spoke to us on practicing Love as a daily commitment. This Sunday, we’ll explore how that commitment supports us in bringing compassion and kindness into the world.

Compassion is the pulse - it's our emotional and caring response to empathy  - a desire to alleviate suffering. Kindness is compassion in motion - our tangible everyday choices to be gentle and helpful. We'll explore why compassion and kindness matter. And Rev. Don will share tools to support us in nurturing a soft heart - staying receptive, compassionate, and deeply empathetic in a world that can often feel cold and harsh.
