Learning to change the world is rarely easy or convenient–it can be complex, costly, and messy.

change, justice

Creativity alone, for those who follow God, isn’t sufficient. Not even ongoing creativity. Our creativity, like God’s, must be aimed at something good. We need redemptive creativity – creativity that aims not just for success, but freedom; and not just for ourselves, but for others and for the good of creation as a whole.

education, justice

Education is a means, not an end. We don’t enroll in formal education ad nauseam as a way of escaping life. Rather, we educate ourselves in order to become equipped to respond wisely to God’s calling.

education, equipping, justice

Our lives are bound up with the lives of others. Our joy is bound up with the joy of others.
