Resumen del Editor

When did kindness become a sign of weakness? These days we view kindness as an inert act based solely on the absence of being a jerk, or as heroic and herculean, beyond the reach and capability of mere mortals. But what if kindness actually had the power to save the world? In his engaging new book In Defense of Kindness, leadership coach and pastor Bruce Reyes-Chow shows how being kind (which is different than being nice) has the power to transform our relationships in all arenas of our lives - from the internet to the public square, from with our families to those we find it most difficult to be kind to, from justice work on the streets to boardroom meetings, and in our everyday transactions, from the school drop-off line or standing in line at the coffee shop.

Relevant, insightful, warm, relatable, and written with Bruce's trademark cheeky wit, In Defense of Kindness will jump-start your heart and inspire you to practice kindness as a daily discipline, grounded in the idea that each person is created and complex and worthy of dignity and respect.

Each chapter ends with reflection questions and several practices for living out kindness in the world every day. Join the kindness movement and help save the world...today!

Kindness is not always easy or comfortable

This book is very thought provoking and has us examine our own actions and if we are truly being kind. The author provides examples through his own life experiences.

Grateful

Thank you to Bruce Reyes-Chow for his anatomy lesson of kindness. He thoroughly defines kindness as action (different from being nice) in all facets of life and gives reflections at the end of each chapter, to help the reader apply kindness immediately in their own lives. The book is a guidebook on how to live with human dignity at the forefront.

Warning: He's a "social justice" extremist.

This book is basically indoctrination for woke ideology. The writing is poor and the metaphors are hard to relate to. If you're already into socialism, black lives matter ideology and you're a christian, then this book might appeal to you. This book reminds me of Robin Deangelo's terrible book White Fragility. Anyway, if you value critical thinking, you aren't a utopian extremist and you want to read something about the virtue of kindness, I would look elsewhere. This book was very disappointing.
