The word justice appears in a lot of places in the biblical record. As a community seeking to follow the pattern of Jesus – a community attempting to live in a way that is Christomporphic, that is ‘in the shape of Jesus’ – we must put the idea of justice as central to our understanding of the good news as did Jesus.
The trouble is, though, we often do not know what justice is. We often see justice as a ‘one-size-fits-all’ rule that everyone needs to obey equally. The idea of justice needs to be parsed and better understood. Come deviate with us as we seek to better understand what justice means, especially in light of the call to those who feel prompted to follow a pathetic God.
