Carl F.H. Henry

Social justice is not simply an appendage to the evangelistic message; it is an intrinsic part of the whole, without which the preaching of the gospel is truncated. Theology devoid of social justice is a deforming weakness of much present-day evangelical witness.

This course will provide the student with a biblical paradigm to engage the topic of social justice in our nations and neighborhoods. Selected topics of contemporary social justice concern will be explored for understanding their impact on local and global communities.

Social Injustice, Volumes 1 & 2

Engage with evangelical thought leaders

Social Injustice Volumes 1 and 2 together form a comprehensive exploration of the evangelical perspective on social justice. In Volume 1, readers are challenged through ten thought-provoking chapters to reflect on their role in addressing critical social issues from a distinctly evangelical standpoint, emphasizing the relevance of these considerations to the ongoing divine mission in the world. Building on this foundation, Volume 2 delves into crucial themes such as discipleship, politics, race, mental health, and community development, featuring global contributions from practitioners and scholars. Titled "Social Injustice, Volume 2: Evangelical Voices in Tumultuous Times," this volume offers accessible and insightful conversations guiding the evangelical church in effectively addressing and contributing to the resolution of social injustices in our tumultuous times.
