Monday's thoughts on Sunday's sermon

The sermon Sunday, July 24 brings into focus a book written by Rosa Parks. The title of the book is My Story. It is an autobiographical account of the singular event that set off the civil rights movement in this country.

What I want to have us consider next Sunday is the hero. What makes a hero? How do people choose to stand up against pressures and inner doubts to become heroic in their words and actions?

I will look at different ways to be heroic. I will have us think about the way we can all be heroic.

Have you known heroic people? What have they taught you about doing something to make a difference in the world?

How do we become heroic in our lives? How do we do this on a scale that fits something that is appropriate to us?
