Strength to Love

A detailed Summary of 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 an

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 entertain me or give me answers to questions in life. The only thing that I should be actually depending on is God and God's word. Our society is made up of people that are just like me. The first thing they turn to when in doubt is the world, when in actuality, it should be God. This is the topic that I would be interested in pursuing further. It interests me on how many people actually turn to God when they are in need of help. Is it half? Or is it less than half? Who knows? This is something that everyone should keep in mind when they in a cornered position. When you have no way out or no way to turn you should see where or who you turn to first. If it's not God who you turn to first then are you someone like me? A soft minded person? Or a tough minded person? If I could ask the author a question on the material he presented I would ask him if he was a soft minded person. You can't tell by the way MLK
