The Wisdom and Witness of Howard Thurman presented by Otis Moss III

Overview

Description
Howard Thurman was an influential American author, Christian mystic, philosopher, theologian, pastor, educator, and civil rights activist. He co-founded the first major interracial, interdenominational church in the U.S.

Thurman’s theology of radical nonviolence shaped a generation of civil rights activists, including Martin Luther King, Jr., and continues to inspire people to work for justice and to be grounded in contemplative practice.

Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III will bring alive the person and witness of Thurman in this three-session Zoom series.
