Why kindness matters: A Lenten reflection. Rev. Andrew Lim

Rev Andrew Lim (Anglican Chinese Mission) brings a powerful and timely reflection from John 9, where Jesus heals a man born blind.

In a world pulled apart by culture wars, labels, and online tribalism, Andrew asks a disarming question:
What if kindness became our irreducible minimum?
Drawing on real stories — from migrants seeking belonging, to a student brave enough to ask for help, to acts of random kindness that ripple far beyond what we can see — this sermon invites us to rediscover kindness as grace:
🌿 undeserved
🌿 transformative
🌿 sacramental

If kindness can change one life, Andrew asks, why not a whole society?

Watch, reflect, and consider how God is inviting you to extend kindness today.
