# Strength to Love - Hardcover

by **Martin Luther King** (Author), **Coretta Scott King** (Foreword by)

**The classic collection of Dr. King's sermons that fuse his Christian teachings with his radical ideas of love and nonviolence as a means to combat hate and oppression.**

As Martin Luther King, Jr., prepared for the Birmingham campaign in early 1963, he drafted the final sermons for _Strength to Love_, a volume of his most well known homilies. King had begun working on the sermons during a fortnight in jail in July 1962. While behind bars, he spent uninterrupted time preparing the drafts for works such as "Loving Your Enemies" and "Shattered Dreams," and he continued to edit the volume after his release. _Strength to Love_ includes these classic sermons selected by Dr. King. Collectively they present King's fusion of Christian teachings and social consciousness and promote his prescient vision of love as a social and political force for change.
