Summer Reading: Right Thing, Right Now
Micah 6:6-8
📕 Right Thing, Right Now: Good Values. Good Character. Good Deeds by Ryan Holiday
The pursuit of justice begins with you
- Knowing the right thing and doing the right thing are two different things
We've confused knowing about God with knowing God
- We have more access to better teaching than ever before, but nothing will change in our lives and world until we allow that knowledge to move from our heads to our hands and feet.
- Don't just listen to the word, do what it says.
What does God require of us as disciples of Jesus?
justice, mercy, humility
Three truths about Justice
-It begins with you
-It only has meaning when we practice it for the sake of others
-It includes everything and everyone
Where is God calling me to live out justice?
How might we extend mercy so others might find freedom and new life in Christ?
Act justly in order to love mercy, and walk humbly
The challenge:
You know what God wants, so do it.
