We all need help maintaining our personal spiritual practice. We hope that these Daily Meditations, prayers and mindful awareness exercises can be part of bringing spirituality alive in your life.

Today's meditation features an iconic sermon by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "We Shall Overcome" is a timeless reminder of the immense work humanity must do to reach a peaceful and more egalitarian future -- but King's words should inspire us to always continue moving forward.
