An entire nation shook under the power of one man’s [MLK’s] dream! Now if one dream can do that for our nation, imagine what a dream can do for the Church.

About This Quote

Martin Luther King said: “An entire nation shook under the power of one man’s [MLK’s] dream! Now if one dream can do that for our nation, imagine what a dream can do for the Church.” The idea was that a simple and sincere dream could inspire so many people and move them to action. That is exactly what happened when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. His dream inspired millions of people to fight for equal rights, equal opportunities, and equal treatment under the law.

In turn, Black churches all over America exploded with passion and activism. When the cause was good, they came together as one seeking opportunities to make change happen.
