Rev. Patrick discusses the call to face conflict through the stories of Martin Luther King, Jr. and William Went, an Episcopalian minister. The latter was "willing to accept the penalties in order to arouse the consciousness of the community over its injustice."
Part of hearing the call to greatness in our lives is making ourselves ready and receptive through our spiritual practices. Leonard Cohen said it this way: "There's a crack in everything, and that's how the light gets in."
The spiritual masters teach us this:
- We are somehow the issue.
- The answer is within us.
- We need help from a higher power.
So let's keep waking up together.
