We cannot separate ourselves from the use of power-either as individuals or as a society or as a church. It is a fact of life. Power is the ability to achieve purpose-the capability for action. Power is a gift from God. God does not intend a world where powerful suppress and oppress the powerless. Power is not meant to be the possession of a few while the majority are impoverished. Power, given by God, is meant to be shared by all. All creation is intended to participate and benefit from the use of power that has the best interest of the neighbor as its goal.
