The early reviews for The Justice of Jesus are in!
One word in particular stands out to me from these reviews: Hope. I take this so much for granted in my voice but the reality is that I do have an audacious amount of hope for the future of the Western Church. Because things don’t have to be this way. Truly grateful that this book is sparking hope for Jesus and Justice loving everyday Christians and church leaders across the West right now!

What we need to talk about is too important to wait. Our May conference has moved to December — but the conversation is urgent, so we’re meeting anyway.
The genocide is ongoing, the region is boiling, and the calls for war are growing louder.
Join the conversation with Palestinian Christians.

Free to Be Faithful conference with Dr. Kristin Du Mez (Author of Jesus & John Wayne) & Angela Reitsma Bick (Author of Blessed Are The Undone) was an incredibly memorable experience.
Grateful for the chance to finally meet and converse with Kristin - a longtime hero & mentor; also a key endorser of The Justice of Jesus.

When you’re secure about your faith, you don’t feel the need to conquer.
Joash Thomas challenges the idea that strong faith has to dominate, debate, or prove itself.
What if real confidence in what we believe frees us to listen more, learn more, and recognize the image of God in people who see the world differently?
Listen to our full conversation with Joash Thomas. Link in bio.
