Justice Formation

Proclaiming the message and practicing the ministry of reconciling humanity to God and all peoples with one another.
--Willets and Feemster

Our Mission: The Mission of The Institute for Justice Formation (IJF) is to establish enduring, robust relationships between

religious and cultural institutions through a holistic program of Worship, Education, and Advocacy.

 

Our Purpose: IJF exists:

  • To investigate and promote the transformational character of Biblical Justice for leaders and communities, and
  • To advocate for leaders and laypersons to do what is right and just intrinsically.

Our Vision: The Vision of IJF is to embody truth as well as serve as a catalyst for Biblical Justice in our world.

"We as a nation proclaim to have rules of engagement- but our laws are not and have not been equally applied…
We create ridiculous rhetoric, mystical stereotypes, and revisionist history to justify discriminatory behavior toward select people groups which makes our unjust treatments even more egregious as it emboldens others to perpetuate and to perpetrate even more discriminatory beliefs and behaviors into our interrelated systems of existence."
-Dr. Barbara Fears taught us about Culturally Relevant Pedagogy and how we can mirror the way Christ taught.

A question many have: “Isn’t ‘justice’ just a radical political agenda being placed on the biblical text?”
Rev. Dr. Rob Wallace walks us through how justice comes directly from the biblical text and the radical ideas found there.

“It is abundantly clear that so many people in our great nation no longer know how to live safely as they are…God is not ok with structures and institutions that perpetuate injustices…
Our gracious Father will deliver us from the discomfort and despair about divorcing beliefs and behaviors that diminish our neighbors and us.”

-Rev. Dr. Sam Feemster inviting us to do this sacred work as we begin day 2 of our conference.

Join us as we learn about what the bible says about Church, Race, and Justice.
