strength to love

As you read the “Strength to Love” you start to realize how today’s society is filled with hatred and has been overcome by great amounts of evil. I think that this is what Martin Luther King wanted to get through to the reader as he wrote this book of sermons. Not only was the society being ruined, but the people that make up the society were damaging our world; and still damaging it today. Obviously, the main issue that Martin Luther King was trying to cover was the idea of living a better lifestyle which God has chosen for us to ultimately better ourselves and our society.

MLK (Martin Luther King, Jr.) makes a lot of good observations which he makes within each chapter. I think that each of the chapters had one specific point that MLK wanted to get by to the reader which summed up to his main topic. Three of the strongest points that struck me the most were the tough mind and the tender hearts of strong people. Secondly, that our God is able to do anything. And Thirdly, The answer to the perplexing question of, “How can evil be cast out?”

As I was reading the first chapter I was amazed how the things that were being said were so true. Our society today is generally built of two types of people: tough minded


people and soft minded people. There is a world out there full of television, radio and internet that people are engaged in. With any of those things easily at hand people tend to depend on them or take them for granted to not only entertain us but to fill us with resources. That resource, which may be true or false, tends to brainwash the soft-minded people of our society. The tendency for people to fall into these types of traps has led to a violent and prejudice lifestyle. Soft mindedness has brought these evil acts upon our world. On the opposite side of the soft minded person is the tough minded person. Jesus has helped those with the tough mind to think with reason, make decisive judgments and decipher true from false. But with only a tough mind you will lack genuine compassion and isolate yourself from others. Not only do you have to have tough mind but you have to have a tender heart. We worship a God who is both tough minded and tender hearted. He leads us and sets examples for us to follow.

After reading the book, I found that the topic that was given was something that was very important but not really taken serious. Everyday there is something that is eating at us and causing evil in our society. Whether it be a terrorist attack or shoplifting from a grocery store, every little thing is something that is eating away at our society. The only person that can help us treat this cancer is the God we worship. One of the most important things that I got out of this book was the first point that MLK made. The first chapter on how the society is split into two types of people hit me the hardest. I realized that I am a soft minded person. I am easily entangled with what goes on in our society. Television, radio, internet or even magazines has truly affected my life. I depend on these things to enter
