The Power of Love

"Love is the way. Love is the only way. Those who follow in my way follow in the way of unconditional, unselfish, sacrificial love. And that kind of love can change the world."
--Bishop Michael Curry

Two billion people watched Bishop Michael Curry deliver his sermon on the redemptive power of love at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle (now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex) at Windsor Castle. Here, he shares the full text of the sermon, plus an introduction and four of his favorite sermons on the themes of love and social justice. The world has met Bishop Curry and has been moved by his riveting, hopeful, and deceptively simple message: love and acceptance are what we need in these strange times.

We hope you'll join us and share the #poweroflove on social media. Post about a moment you saw the power of love firsthand – be it with a significant other, watching Fiona the Hippo swim around with her mom, or seeing a Red Cross worker offer relief after a natural disaster. It can be a text post, a photo, a video, whatever you’re comfortable with doing. You can share it on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Snapchat, or any platform that you use and love. Encourage your followers to share their #poweroflove moments as well. By spreading this message of love, inclusiveness, and togetherness, we can, in the words of the Bishop, “change lives, and change this world.”
