Cracking The Monolith

Cracking The Monolith


Bill Rankin is the author of a 1994 book on social change with the same title as his sermon

with the subtitle, “The Struggle for the Soul of America: A Peace and Justice Manifesto.”

Bill is a 20-year friend of John and Gwen Buehrens, an Episcopal priest holding a doctorate

in social ethics, the former Dean of Episcopal Divinity School, and, with his wife, Sally,

was recently honored by Duke University for community service in global health. He is

President Emeritus of thegaia.org, The Global AIDS Interfaith Alliance. We will mark both the

spring equinox and Palm Sunday.
