68. Biblical Justice (ft. Hashim Warren)

Jamar Tisby's "The Color of Compromise" examines the history of racial reconciliation in the American church. Tisby argues that white Christians have often failed to fully confront their complicity in systemic racism. The book explores various historical examples and theological arguments to support this claim. Tisby challenges readers to acknowledge the ongoing impact of racial injustice and to actively work towards dismantling it. He offers a framework for understanding and addressing racial issues within the context of Christian faith. The book has sparked significant debate and discussion within Christian circles.

In 'Generous Justice', Timothy Keller argues against the common secular view that the Bible hinders justice, instead presenting the Bible as a fundamental source for promoting justice and compassion. He explores how a life of justice is empowered by an experience of grace, emphasizing that true justice is rooted in God's grace and the gospel. The book discusses biblical motivations for doing justice, including the doctrine of creation and the grace of God in redemption, and provides practical applications for social change through immediate relief, individual and community development, and social reform.
