Loving Social Justice because it is something God loves and understanding we can only do something about it because of God’s Love for Us (Mt. Greenwood)

“Just as “believers” are a dime a dozen in the church, so are “activists” in social justice circles now-a-days. But lovers are hard to come by. And I think that’s what our world is desperately in need of/lovers, people who are building deep, genuine relationships with fellow struggler's along the way, and who actually know the faces of the people behind the issues they are concerned about.

"We are trying to raise up an army not simply of street activists but of lovers, a community of people who have fallen desperately in love with God and with suffering people, and who allow those relationships to disturb and transform them.”

- Shane Claiborne, The Irresistible Revolution, pgs. 295-296

Challenge: Understand why as followers of Christ it is our responsibility to care for the needy and oppressed and understand that justice without God is no justice at all.
