"The Justice Project" - Available for Pre-Order
The Justice Project is the new book due out September 1, 2009, from Emersion (Baker Books in partnership with Emergent Village). It’s now available for pre-order on Amazon.
Here’s the description from the Baker website:
- Justice and the call for change are in the air. Whether it’s extreme poverty, human rights, racism, or the Middle East, news outlets bombard us with stories about the need for justice in the world. But how are Christians to respond to these stories and the conditions to which they refer?
Here’s help. Editors Brian McLaren, Elisa Padilla, and Ashley Bunting Seeber have amassed a collection of over 30 brief chapters by some of the most penetrating thinkers in the justice conversation, including Rene Padilla, Peggy Campolo, Will and Lisa Samson, Sylvia Keesmaat, Bart Campolo, Lynne Hybels, Tony Jones, and Richard Twiss. Divided into sections, “God of Justice,” “Book of Justice,” “Justice in the USA,” “Just World,” and “Just Church,” The Justice Project invites readers to deepen their understanding of the pressures our world faces and to take up the challenge of alleviating them. Never has the world been in greater need of Christians who “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.” This resource will help them do just that.
Other Emersion books in the pipeline:
