Manage episode 374103326 series 3444031
Spencer Goldstein is a Military Police officer turned pacifist and conscientious objector. Spencer is a graduate from West Point and has his masters in biblical exposition. He began to think differently about peacemaking through the disability community who taught him that God's love for all people is grand and one centered on peace. Spencer began to read the words of Jesus who talks of peace, love of enemy, and forgiveness through the eyes of marginalized people and decided he could no longer serve in the military. He now is transitioning out of the Army and works for the Center on Conscience and War as the director of development and is working as an intern for RAWtools where they disarm hearts, forge peace, and cultivate justice.
