OCT 18, 202659 MIN

Description

Can Christians pursue justice without becoming more like Jesus? Jonathan Tremaine Thomas, author of Make Straight the Path and founder of the Civil Righteousness Movement, believes there’s a difference between civil righteousness and fighting for civil rights. He’s here today to talk about justice, activism, peacemaking and what the church’s role is in all of it. He also breaks down political tribalism, agendas that don’t produce the fruits of the spirit and what freedom actually looks like when people are hurting.
