CSPL Membership Meeting | March 2024

Jesus Used Nonviolence in Resistance to the Roman Empire, but this is often misunderstood and misused to enforce passivity. This presentation draws inspiration from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Gandhi, nonviolent resistors of oppression in their own contexts, to develop a theology of nonviolence that accurately embraces Jesus’ nonviolent actions.
