From royal wedding to Roanoke, Episcopal bishop to deliver message of love

From North Carolina-

Some years ago, if you’d asked the Most Rev. Michael Curry, presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church, what’s the opposite of love, he would have replied, hate.
But it’s dawned on him that’s only partially true.
“The real opposite of love is selfishness, it’s self-centeredness,” Curry said. “The reality is we must find ways beyond selfishness and self-centeredness and find ways for common ground, ways that we can live together, in order to live. Love is the way. That’s what love is about.”

And that’s the main message Curry seeks to impart this weekend in Roanoke when he presides over a neighborhood walk Saturday and speaks at a revival Sunday.
Curry gained worldwide recognition last year at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for his sermon on the power of love.
