Faith, Work, and Redemptive Justice

Watch this Faith and Work webinar as we consider how God’s Word and our salvation compel us to engage justice efforts for the purposes of God’s kingdom. In the spirit of integrating orthodoxy and orthopraxy, the panel discusses meaningful ways Christians can engage social issues, ways to participate in social innovation, and how our efforts to engage justice might differ from those who do not share our faith.
