Embracing Justice

Isabelle Hamley takes us on an exhilarating journey through Scripture to reflect on what justice means to God. Even when creation around us seems broken, unequal and violent, she uncovers how pursuing justice is something that God intends to be hopeful, healing and freeing for us all. The Bible tell of God inviting people to join his mission of transformation. In this book, Hamley shows how God offers that same invitation to churches, communities and individual Christians today - even as we too live in a fractured and hurting world. Offering practical encouragement, Embracing Justice brilliantly weaves together biblical texts, diverse voices, contemporary stories, and personal and group meditations. It reveals liberating and imaginative ways in which we may grow in discipleship together - and more fully reflect the justice, mercy and compassion of Christ in our lives. Book jacket.
