Love is Kind, Not Nice

Jesus was many things, but nice wasn't necessarily one of them. He was, however, the embodiment of kindness.

The terms "kind" and "nice" are often used interchangeably, but they're often, in practice, opposite of one another.

Kindness is an expression of love that, by nature, regards the good and wellbeing of others. It is doing what is good for somebody else without an ulterior motive.

Niceness, on the other hand, is often extended toward others as a means of getting what we want. It's a counterfeit form of kindness that only exists as long as we get our way.

Join Brian and Katie as they discuss why being kind is far superior to being nice, and why it's so important that parents understand the difference.
