  • Remembering Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. - He faithfully served his purpose and pursued his calling to do God's will.  His commitment to love instead of hate, to trust God to see that key change - through what is known as the Civil Rights Movement would come to pass -  is a powerful testimony that when God is for us, who can be against us.  When God is on our side, we should not fear what man does to us.
