Worship - October 27, 2024
We continue our series this Sunday with exploring Kingian Nonviolence Principle #4: Accept suffering without retaliation for the sake of the cause to achieve the goal. When Jesus calls us to "Turn the other cheek" how are we supposed to respond? We will look at the Sermon on the Mount and explore the difference between non-violence and nonviolence. Join us this Sunday as we consider how this key principle does not champion weakness and passivity, but calls us to action through the power of love.
