  Martin Luther King Jr

  $16.95

  Martin Luther King, Jr.-Spirit-led Prophet tells the compelling story of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.-pastor, theologian, scholar, orator, civil rights leader, martyr. Spirit-led Prophet chronicles King’s activities illustrating his nonviolent faith and how he lived it out in his ministry. In the midst of a tumultuous public life, King prayed for guidance and depended upon God’s spirit to lead him. Despite the cruelty and violence of the forces arrayed against the movement, King stressed the necessity to love one’s enemies, to believe that unearned suffering is redemptive and to have faith in God’s just purposes.

  “Richard Deats has produced in his work an invaluable spiritual portrait of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the sources of his faith, courage, and willingness to offer his life to the nonviolent stuggle against violence, racial, and economic injustice. These teachings, so well revealed in this unique biography, have endured because they continue to offer hope and inspiration for all who would fulfill the Dream.”
