What would it look like for us to practice justice that’s restorative, instead of punishing? Today, lead pastor Josh Scott explains why justice and generosity are two of the central focuses of progressive Christianity. He reminds us that God cares more about justice and human flourishing than about what rituals we do or what doctrines we believe. He then opens up the floor for a conversation with our GracePointe community about how we can pursue justice in today’s world.
