Next Episode: Beyond the Sermon: Howard Thurman
Howard Thurman was one of the greatest preachers, writers, and mystics of the 20th century. His book “Jesus and the Disinherited” was a landmark work that invited us to see Jesus on the side of the oppressed, and inspired us to work through non-violent means to bring justice and social change. Every day, Thurman read Psalm 139, as a source of strength and courage, and verses 13-18 capture the intimate relationship he sought to have with God.

2. How have you or will you build a relationship with the disinherited?
3. How can you dismantle discrimination? Specifically, what action will you take?
