I hope to be reading about you in the history books some day, Andrew. I think you’re every bit as courageous as Martin Luther King.

I went to a MLK program at the history museum today. We forget how Christian he was. The news media downplays it, but I was glad to see the activities today(skits, music, & speech)emphasized the Christian aspect of his mission, which is what it was! Yes, he had his faults, but God still used him in his short life.
He even touched a white dude, born after his death, to reach a mostly white demographic!! Keep it up!!!!

Thanks so much for sharing this Andy. I heartily agree with Martin Luther King, Jr. I think I have grown so much over the years because I’ve constantly been in tension with good people who have taught me much and I hope I’ve been able to pass along some insights as well. It takes me back to a professor in my undergraduate that expressed that without conflict, there is no growth. I’m sure many people have said this or quoted it but I think MLK was saying the same thing. I hope for a country where we can grow to be in tension in healthy ways rather than hate each other because we don’t agree on important matters.
