04.22.18 "MY DAY IN COURT" - REV. TONY PONTICELLO

Jury Duty a unique challenge for the dedicated ACIM student. While it is our civic duty and most of us LOVE democracy, being asked to judge a fellow brother or sister as "guilty" or "not guilty" feels to be something one just should NOT be doing. "See no one, then, as guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto yourself." (OrEd.Tx.13.16) Plus a guilty verdict means that a judge will now decide upon appropriate punishment makes things even more cut and dry. We just can't do it. This past Wednesday, I Rev. Tony, was again summons to jury duty. This time when I got my turn in the jury box to talk to the judge I felt it was indeed MY day in court to deliver a message to the judge, the various court officials, the defense attorney, the plaintiff, the prosecutor, the other potential jurors, and the entire assembled jury pool! I had their attention! 25 min. SUBSCRIBE & SHARE
