Love Wins in The Shoes of Happiness

Today Bob Edgar of Common Cause came to speak to our Ministry in Non-Parish Settings class. He was a great speaker with many quotes and words of wisdom to share. I'd like to pass along this one.

This is a poem called "Outwitted" by Edwin Markham, from The Shoes of Happiness, and Other Poems (1913):

He drew a circle that shut me out —
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in.
