Second Lesson Sermons For Sundays After Pentecost
After watching Gandhi, the acclaimed movie about the nonviolent leader of India, for the sixth time, I felt what I had felt at every previous viewing. "Did this man lead a life of being a victim or a victor?" He allowed himself to be imprisoned and to starve as a weapon against the British Empire. He somehow mobilized a nation through a non--violent force. He lived a very simple life, and it did not make sense to the British Empire that one could become victorious by being what seemed to everyone a victim.
