9:00 am - 10:00 am
BBUUC Christian Fellowship will meet Sunday April 26 at 9 am in the Forrest Church Room. The topic is “Social Justice: Realizing God’s Vision”, from the Living the Questions Video series. The episodes feature well known Bible scholars speaking from a viewpoint of Progressive Christianity.
The call to pursue social justice has deep roots in the Biblical tradition and has been at the heart of efforts to address social, environmental, and moral injustices around the world. Theodore Parker, the great Unitarian preacher and activist, believed that the significance of religion in the first place was in its active “meddling” in public issues and “everything that affects the welfare of [humanity].” In a society which is often unjust, inequitable, and whose very structures are responsible for generating untold suffering and poverty, we are right to wonder, “Is there any word from the Lord?”
