Confronting Injustice Without Compromising Truth

12 Questions Christians Should Ask About Social Justice

​

Registration now open.

​

Not everything called “social justice“ today is compatible with a biblical vision of a better world. The Bible's call to seek justice is not a call to superficial, knee-jerk activism. The God who commands us to seek justice is the same God who commands us to “test everything” and “hold fast to what is good.”

Drawing from a diverse range of theologians, sociologists, artists, and activists, Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth, by Thaddeus Williams, makes the case that we must be discerning if we are to “truly execute justice” as Scripture commands.

Discussion Leader: Edwin Ramirez 

Day/Time: Thursdays, 4 PM (PT)/7 PM (ET)

Dates: Sept. 16, 23, 30, Oct. 7, 14, and 21
