KINDNESS FOR LIFE - The KIND that Breaks, Part 6

May 21, 2018

Our kindness challenge has come to end, but not before we went out with a BANG in the finale of The KIND that Breaks.

In this message, we talked about three things we can do to turn our 30 day kindness challenge into a 30 year (or more) kindness lifestyle. In addition, I got some help from some fellow STSA members who were willing to share their stories about how showing kindness has impacted them.

"Our happiness depends FAR more on how we choose to treat others, than on how we ourselves are treated."

Kindness When It Matters Most - The KIND that Breaks, Part 5

May 14, 2018

"Anyone unwilling to forgive is usually thinking of what was done TO THEM vs FOR THEM."

It's easy to be kind to those whom we deem worthy of our kindness (loved ones, friends, family, etc.), but there's another category of kindness that we need to look at as well. And that is kindness to those who have hurt us.

In this week's message - Part 5 of The KIND that Breaks - we look at the subject of FORGIVENESS and how we can display "Kindness When It Matters Most."

CARRYING OUT KINDNESS - The KIND that Breaks, Part 4

May 7, 2018

It's Part 4 in The KIND that Breaks and this week we're moving from THOUGHTS (nixing negativity) and WORDS (practicing praise) to ACTION! But what we discovered is that it isn't always the big actions that communicate love; often it's the small ones.

So as we set out to Carry Out Kindness this week, remember to think SMALL, not big.

PRACTICING PRAISE - The KIND that Breaks, Part 3

April 30, 2018

It's time for the 2nd element in our 30 day kindness challenge: PRACTICING PRAISE. The goal is to find one positive thing that you can sincerely praise or affirm about your person and then tell them AND tell someone else.

According to research, that one simple activity can make a HUGE impact on even the most challenging of relationships.

Why is that? Check out part 3 of The KIND that Breaks and see for yourself.

NIXING NEGATIVITY - The KIND that Breaks, Part 2

April 23, 2018

And we're off! The 30 day kindness challenge has begun and we kicked it off by discussing the first of three components: Say nothing negative, either TO your person or ABOUT them to someone else.

And before you say "That's easy; I'm not a negative person" - be sure to check out this message above. We discussed 4 different types of negativity and you might be surprised to find out what else falls under the negativity umbrella.

All that and more in part 2 of The KIND that Breaks.
