The book “Essays on Justice, Goodness and Faith” inspires you to grow in your doing of justice, wanting to be a good person, and deepening your faithfulness to God. The essays are reprinted with permission from articles by John Zehring in The Christian Citizen, a social justice publication of the American Baptist Home Mission Societies. JUSTICE – how you treat people. To do justice is to open our eyes to those in need, especially those on the margins of society, and to be led to stand with and to speak for those who are oppressed. GOODNESS – the craving to want to be a good person and a good nation. I asked an eminent man of many achievements how he wanted to be remembered… what did he wish his legacy to be? He answered “I just want to be a good person.” FAITH – For those who proclaim “The Lord is my Shepherd,” faithfulness to God comes first. Mother Theresa said “God does not call us to be successful. God calls us to be faithful.” Faith in God calls us do justice and to want to be a good person and a good nation.
