Jesus is a partner in the pain of the oppressed and the example of His life offers a solution to ending the descent into moral nihilism. Hatred does not empower--it decays. Only through self-love and love of one another can God's justice prevail.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHailed by \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine as one of the great preachers of the twentieth century; a spiritual advisor to Martin Luther King, Jr., Sherwood Eddy, James Farmer, A.
