I’m Rev. Jay Stuart Glover and you are listening to Faith Talk. For today’s episode we are celebrating the life of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and his work towards justice. We will take a moment to look at two powerful quotes from his book, “Strength to Love.” The book “Strength To Love” is one of my favorites and clearly a must read.
In honoring Dr. King's legacy, we must ask ourselves crucial questions. How can our faith find find expression in our working towards making our communities a better place? Are we willing to let our faith inspire us to take action towards dismantling injustices that continue to plague our communities today?
As we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, let us remember that King’s vision of a beloved community and a world redeemed through love and justice calls for our participation. His life exemplified that no matter how daunting the struggle, collective action rooted in love can bring about profound change.
Let us hold on to King’s teachings and God's unchanging hand as we commit ourselves anew to the pursuit of justice, equity, and love for all. May we never allow our faith to be a mere superstition, but rather, may it be a vibrant, living force that propels us into action.
Thank you for joining me on this commemorative reflection.
