Ezra - The Sound of Restoration

Ezra - The Joy of Beginning

Patience and Prayer

Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.

The tongue can create a reality in which the worst of our human choices become true.

Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

God has designed it that in order for humans totruly flourish we must operate out of a place of rest and not into a place of rest.

For the last few weeks we have been unpacking what Justice is. We previously mentioned four key relationships: Us with God, Us with Ourselves, Us with Others, and Us with Creation. Today we will focus primarily on Us with Others and in particular with Branches of Hope.

You cannot call yourself a Christian and remain distant to the injustice in society around you. We must join Jesus in the work of restoring shalom and flourishing to the society in which we are planted in.

If you want to be more like Jesus, you are invited to be more just.
