About Us
Micah 6:8 He has shown all you people what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
Welcome to the community “blogzine” of The Just Life. This site is dedicated to a growing community of Christians committed to an open discussion about and a disciplined response to what it means to live a life of love and justice based on Biblical principles, the teachings and life of Jesus, the examples of His followers, and the daily realities we face.
The Just Life ministry seeks to offer solid, biblically-based teaching and practical solutions for the life we are called to live in response to God’s demand for love and justice from His people. The Just Life is about tackling hard issues like poverty, race, gender, wealth, politics, and the environment as a community committed to exploring the issues, educating one another about the truth, and embracing the principles of biblical justice. We will work through the difficult matters together; we will ask the hard questions, we will search the deep places — What does the LORD require?
More than anything we want people to have a place to share their story, bring up important issues, and explore what it looks like to live a just life – with our prayers, with our giving, with our purchases, with our vote, with our voice, in our minds, in our homes, in our community, in our city and globally.
Here you will find articles and blog posts on a variety of biblical justice related topics that are open for anyone to comment on and discuss with other visitors. Everyone is searching for daily practical responses to God’s heart for justice. Each issue and discussion is tempered by an honest desire to figure out: What does the LORD require? What do I do differently tomorrow than I did today?
Simply dive into recent articles here, browse by topic with the issues menu above, or find everything in the archives. Comment freely on any article no matter when it was originally posted – no discussion ever expires as there are always new people joining in. We are all looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
