What if we really could continue the work of community organizers of old, like the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, and support the work of others today? Rev. Linda explains why she has made community organizing a spiritual practice in her ministry, encouraging putting relationships at the center of all we do to help our dreams be realized, within our families, our congregations, our neighborhoods, even our world!
