March 14, 2021 – Stand Up
Rev. Kristin Powell explores the spiritual call to "stand up" as part of Unity of Walnut Creek's Season for Nonviolence series, drawing from Valerie Carr's revolutionary love framework and the courageous legacy of Harriet Tubman. She reminds us that true reconciliation requires truth-telling, and that faith without action remains incomplete - just as Jesus demonstrated by speaking spiritual truth to worldly power and standing up for the marginalized. Rev. Kristin Powell encourages us to integrate contemplation with activism, pausing before causing harm and finding the courage to speak up on behalf of others, knowing that our liberation is bound up together.
