At Spirit of Truth, we talk and pray about human issues. We speak of people being denied their rights as humans-- as children of God-- to food, education, medical care, housing, jobs. These are, at their most basic, about keeping our bodies alive and healthy.
But we humans also have souls. And, in the experience we had this past Sunday (Love Your Neighbor: Faith Values for a Just Economy Campaign), we wrestled with these issues with our souls. We talked, we used our brains, of course, but we came together because our souls know God and God’s desires for human rights and dignity. We recognize God’s role in our work for justice.
So, in an effort to help people keep body and soul together, we must use our bodies and our souls to work for justice.
