In this sermon, Pastor David delves into the concept of kindness as one of the fruits of the Spirit, indicating a growing relationship with Jesus. Using the analogy of a highly-recognized Texas business sign, he explains how signs indicate experiences, relating this to how kindness signifies Christ's presence in our lives. The sermon emphasizes that kindness is not a sign of weakness but rather a choice made from a position of strength. Pastor David references Ephesians 4:31-32, urging us to "Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice" and instead "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Drawing inspiration from Mr. Rogers, Pastor David highlights the transformative power of kindness. He addresses the challenge of showing kindness when we don't feel like it or when others don't seem to deserve it. He quotes Jesus' words from Luke 6:32-36, emphasizing the importance of loving our enemies and doing good without expecting anything in return.
