| February 14, 2010 10:30 AM | Rev. Jean Rowe -"Standing on the Side of Love"- Martin Luther King, Jr. said in his 1967 speech, "When I speak of love I am not speaking of some sentimental and weak response. I am speaking of that force which all the great religions have seen as the supreme unifying principle of life." When we stand on the side of love, we are acting with the power of the very force of life, or God. It is the force that leads to justice. |

I'll describe the process and pass out a worksheet and resources for you to take home. |
