Reverend Curry on Meghan, Harry and America
Curry, Meghan, Harry, Anne McElvoy
Presiding Bishop Michael Curry leveraged his historic role as the first African-American bishop of the Episcopal Church to deliver a sermon at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, framing romantic love as a spiritual discipline of sacrificial living that transcends cultural divides. He extends this theology to address contemporary social fractures, urging the church to model pluralism amid internal disagreements on LGBTQ+ inclusion while publicly challenging the Trump administration's immigration policies as theological heresies. Ultimately, Curry projects a global vision where the church actively pursues the abolition of poverty and war, asserting that Christian love must drive both personal reconciliation and political justice.
