Justice and Young People

They discuss chapters 18-22

18. Seeing Justice Emerge in a Flawed System by Karis Carson

19.Transcending Borstals: Secure Schools as Spaces for Transformation by Steve Chalke

20. Education: A Matter of Life and Death by Dave Mann

21. A Surprise Knock at the Door by Simon Jay

22. Was it Mercy or Justice that Ignited Spark2Life? by Beth Deer

Questions for You:

  1. Reflect on the mercy you have been shown. How might this shape your understanding of justice for others?
  2. The conversation suggests we use “prophetic imagination” to explore necessary changes to unjust structures. Take time to imagine this at a national or local level. What would a redeemed housing, justice, youth provision look like and how could policy changes help achieve this?
  3. Stephen suggests more Christians with lived experience should enter local or national politics. Have you considered this? Where would you begin?
  4. Have you considered ways to network a local project with a broader campaign? One suggestion was through Citizens UK, are there other groups that could strengthen your impact? Have you thought about this?
  5. Tim spoke about the resilience needed to live in the “not yet” where injustice persists. How can you stay motivated? Which spiritual practices may help?
