Product Description
"If there is one book Martin Luther King, Jr. has written that people consistently tell me has changed their lives, it is Strength to Love."
So wrote Coretta Scott King. She continued: "I believe it is because this book best explains the central element of Martin Luther King, Jr.' s philosophy of nonviolence: His belief in a divine, loving presence that binds all life. That insight, luminously conveyed in this classic text, here presented in a new and attractive edition, hints at the personal transformation at the root of social justice: " By reaching into and beyond ourselves and tapping the transcendent moral ethic of love, we shall overcome these evils."
In these short meditative and sermonic pieces, some of them composed in jails and all of them crafted during the tumultuous years of the Civil Rights struggle, Dr. King articulated and espoused in a deeply personal compelling way his commitment to justice and to the intellectual, moral, and spiritual conversion that makes his work as much a blueprint today for Christian discipleship as it was then.
Individual readers, as well as church groups and students will find in this work a challenging yet energizing vision of God and redemptive love.

 | Service as promised Aug 31, 2009 |
| The book was in great condition, just as promised and arrived in a timely manner. Couldn't ask for more! | | |  | Great Read Dec 22, 2008 |
| This is one of the best books I've ever read and one that I intend to read over and over again for its inspirational, motivational, life changing messages. | | | | Change your thinking... Nov 29, 2008 |
| I could not read chapter to chapter. I had to read it slowly. Each chapter had me weeping for crying out loud! All of us are prone to make mistakes, but Dr.King made himself available to be used by God to move mountains with Love, as it should have always been. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has struggled with anger and would like to see God's move in the seemingly ordinary people in this land. | | | | Preachers class Nov 1, 2008 |
| This book was used in teaching a preaching class, and it was a great addition! | | | | "The ultimate measure of a man..." Sep 30, 2008 |
One of my favorite quotes came from this book:
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
Martin Luther King Jr., Strength to Love, 1963
US black civil rights leader & clergyman (1929 - 1968)
