About Me

www.TheJustLife.org

The Just Life ministry seeks to offer solid, biblically-based teaching and practical solutions for the life we are called to live in response to God’s demand for love and justice from His people. The Just Life is about tackling the hard issues of injustice as a community committed to exploring the issues, educating one another about the truth, and embracing the principles of biblical justice. We will work through the difficult matters together; we will ask the hard questions, we will search the deep places – What does the LORD require?

At The Just Life you will find articles and blog posts on a variety of biblical justice related topics that are open for anyone to comment on and discuss with other visitors. Everyone is searching for daily practical responses to God’s heart for justice. Each issue and discussion is tempered by an honest desire to figure out: What does the LORD require? What do I do differently tomorrow than I did today?

More than anything we want people to have a place to share their story, bring up important issues, and explore what it looks like to live a just life – with our prayers, with our giving, with our purchases, with our vote, with our voice, in our minds, in our homes, in our community, in our city and globally.
