Strength to Love (King Legacy)

"Strength to Love (King Legacy)" is a profound exploration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s intertwining of Christian teachings with his groundbreaking views on love and nonviolence as mechanisms to challenge societal hate and oppression. Published on October 15, 2019, this collection of King’s sermons, crafted during pivotal moments such as a fortnight spent in jail in July 1962, resonates with his experiences and thoughts during the preparation for the Birmingham campaign in 1963. The sermons, including "Loving Your Enemies" and "Shattered Dreams," are a testament to King’s belief in love as a powerful force for social and political change. Ideal for college students studying racial justice and religious freedom, this book not only delves into historical contexts and personal struggles but also encourages readers to reflect on how they can embody these teachings in the current fight against injustice. Engage with King's timeless wisdom and consider how radical empathy and persistent love can reshape our world.
