Episode Synopsis

EP 6 - How do we know if we're addressing injustices in our city? What does addressing injustice look like practically for the average person?How do we move from recognizing an injustice is happening to taking helpful action?Biblical justice isn’t just an abstract concept; it’s central to God’s character and a call for us to bring His beauty, healing, and wholeness to the brokenness caused by sin—both personal and systemic. Justice is relational, and at its core, it’s about "making things right."Using a fictional case study of a family navigating life in a new church community, together, we’ll talk through the justice facets of:Relational Proximity – Building relationships that honor the image of God in one another and cultivate unity. Relief – Meeting urgent needs that arise from an injustice. Development – Committing to long-term transformation for both the helper and the helped. Reform – Addressing the systemic issues that perpetuate injustice and partnering with others to create meaningful change.These principles are grounded in Scripture and the belief that God invites us into justice work to reflect His kingdom on earth. This work isn’t fast or easy, but it’s worth it.Listen in as I take a simple walk through four facets of Biblical justice and what it looks like to live them out in our communities.
