Just Disciples - Living at the Intersection of Faith and Justice
Justice isn’t a political agenda, it’s a theological agenda in this podcast we will examine what it means to do what God commanded us to do through the prophet Isaiah: to “learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow’s cause (Isaiah 1:17, ESV).

Jesus spoke of the Sower, the Seed, and the Soil. Today, we’re asking: Are we casting our votes on the type of soil where justice can grow?

Is Christmas Day the end or is it a beginning? While itmight mark the end of a season for many, here at the Just Disciples podcast we believe it’s a beginning – the beginning of a season of following the challenge John the Baptist put to us to “Prepare the way for the LORD’s coming!” There aremany crooked roads to straighten out, many valleys of inequality to fill in, and many mountains of injustice to...
As Advent comes to a close, many of us find ourselves searching for hope—a sense that better days are ahead. Yet, when life’s challenges seem to push that future further away, hope can feel out of reach. In this episode of Just Disciples, we explore how God’s promise to Israel, “For I know the plans I have for you… plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 2...

In our last episode we talked about transformational love and love is the path Jesus – the Prince of Peace – invites us to follow. If we are true disciples of Jesus we are called to be peacemakers just as he was and it’s peace that is the topic of this second episode in our Advent series. In these chaotic times it might be easy for us to become apathetic about the perpetual injustice that plagues our world, but, J...
This is the first episode in our Advent series and it deals with the topic of transformational love. Love is one of the four liturgical themes of Advent, but, it is typically reserved for the final week of the season. However, we have chosen to begin this series with it because it is the cornerstone on which a just society is built. After all, isn't justice really about applying the principle of loving our neighbors as ourselves in...
