Injustice is alive and well in our world.
Injustice.
Your intuitions are correct. The world is not as it ought to be. There are more than 40 million men, women, and children in slavery – generating $150 billion per year for their traffickers. Why does power seem to always be on the side of the oppressor? Let’s talk about that.
Jesus.
He is the most influential person to ever set foot on the earth. What it is about Jesus that has made him the source of inspiration, motivation, and transformation for so many of the greatest social justice reformers throughout history? Let’s talk about that.
What should we do about injustice? And what does Jesus say about this broken world in which we live?
Justice & Jesus is a chance for us to bring these questions together through conversation and community.
What is this?
Justice & Jesus is a 3-week conversation series. It usually happens over a meal. Together, you will increase your understanding of injustices like human trafficking, how you can fight it, and why Jesus is relevant. It can happen in a home, dorm room, or any place you can gather for a conversation - even virtually.
We will help you with the conversation.
We provide videos and discussion questions, and even some helpful tips on becoming a great host.
You help with the food and friends.
Justice & Jesus usually happens over a meal. It can be simple pasta or catered food. Resist the temptation to skip the meal time if you can. Remember, this is not a lecture series or Bible study, but a time to gather as friends.
Introduce yourself. We’ll give you everything you need to get the conversation started.
Hosting a Justice & Jesus conversation series is as easy as 1,2,3.
1. Invite
Invite your friends to come to your house (or wherever you are gathering) for a dinner and discussion series around justice and Jesus.
2. Watch and Discuss
Each week, we provide you with videos and questions to focus the conversation. No need to be an expert or come up with your own content.
3. Engage
At the end of the series, participants are invited to explore ways to both seek Jesus and seek justice in the area of modern day slavery and in the world around them
About Us
We believe a shared meal has the power to rescue and heal.
These meal conversations are a collaboration between International Justice Mission and Cru.
We both care about people finding freedom. We both believe that every person, everywhere, matters. Meaningful conversations with people unlike us are increasingly rare. This is our way of setting the table for conversations that matter.
