Dad, is there a difference between social justice and biblical justice?
“The Lord is a God of justice” (Isaiah 30:18), so justice is unsurprisingly a primary biblical virtue. But can the pursuit of justice go off the rails? Judging from the recent cultural discourse and the questions your kids may be bringing home from school as a result, it sure seems so. How do we maintain a commitment to biblical justice while helping our kids respond to the dangerous excesses of the social justice movement?
