change
If you know me at all, you know that I believe telling alternative stories will change the world faster than violence or politics.
It is in this spirit that I suggest the person who gives the speech in the video below would serve the world better from a grassroots level, than a political one.
This coincides with a comment by my friend Mark on Emergingleadersnetwork.org that has been making me think:
I seem to recall Augustine wrestling with this in "City of God," expressing some guilt for Christianity's alignment with Constantinople/Rome but also some hope for its propagation beyond the limited sphere it occupied at that time.
I do believe that we can change society for the better. I do not believe these changes can or will come from a government, rather from people with broken hearts.
