Constant Kindness invites readers on a journey through stories and reflections from across the globe, combined with Scripture, exploring what it means to live with compassion and courage in an increasingly divided and fragile world.
Drawing on experiences ranging from bringing aid to refugees in the Calais Jungle to pastoral conversations with LGBTQ+ people, from a pilgrimage to Lourdes to a World Youth Day meeting in Krakow, the author reflects on encounters that reveal both the challenges and possibilities of everyday intentional kindness. Alongside moments of heartbreak and conflict are inspiring examples of resilience, hope and human connection. A chapter on the Camino de Santiago offers further insights gained through the pilgrim journey.
As these stories unfold, a deeper vision of kindness emerges as a transformative way of life at a time marked by anger, division and fear. A practical book with questions for further reflection and discussion at the end of each chapter, Constant Kindness offers you a compelling alternative: a path of tenderness, acceptance and inclusive love that has the potential to change relationships, communities and society itself.
