9月5日 的 Living for Jesus and Justice 應用程式分析

Daily Prayers for Radical Christians Jesus’ life and words move us to respond to poverty, injustice and exclusion with compassion and action. This unique and original daily Christian liturgy is for people who want to take those words seriously in personal devotion, in our communities and in public life. It comprises four main parts: a new presentation of the Beatitudes in today’s language; a Daily Liturgy (with prayers for morning, midday and evening on a seven-day cycle); Waymakers and Waymarkers, a 366-day calendar of people and events that bent the arc of history towards justice; and bespoke Occasional Prayers for activists to use at every kind of gathering. ‘A toolkit for contemplative activism.’ Steve Chalke ‘A great resource for individuals and communities seeking to join in God’s healing of all things, to breathe in before acting out.’ Jonny Baker ‘This book is both a breath of fresh air and a call to disciplined, liberated living, which is the invitation of Jesus to all of us. Take a deep breath and launch in.’ Sian Murray Williams ‘This invaluable resource is a gift to individuals and communities who long to integrate prayer into their lives of following the radical, life giving and transforming Jesus.’ Roy Searle ‘This exhilarating collection expresses the conviction [that] true prayer is not an alternative to action, rather it is the ground of all truly radical action.’ Bishop Michael Ipgrave Living for Jesus & Justice has been prepared by a diverse gathering of voices as an initiative of Red Letter Christians UK, collated and edited by Simon Jones, a writer, activist and theologian, and co-founder of Peaceful Borders, a grassroots agitation working with displaced people in Calais and London.
