What our program participants are saying

I recently participated in The Land Is Not Our Own, and it has been a real revelation to me. The first step is awareness and knowledge, followed by action, and this program can be an important catalyst in one’s journey. I also received an unexpected gift of increased reverence for the wonders of creation that are all around us, an appreciation that, in the long-term, may hold the key to our very survival as a species.

JustFaith’s new "Youth for Justice: Our Faith in Action” curriculum provides youth leaders with the resources they need to take on the hard questions and work of justice in their unique ministry locations. With probing questions, eye-opening videos, and a variety of topics to choose from, youth are able to explore and discover the connection between their faith and justice—and that these two are inextricably intertwined. Youth will connect to the contemporary music offered in the curriculum and discover that there is no choice but to live out the things they are learning. We are very grateful for this youth-centered curriculum that lighting a fire in youth at our church!

Transformative is the single word that comes to mind. This program challenges us to deal with (and not just examine) the reality of racial injustice on individuals, families, and communities as well as entire segments of our country. We are blessed by having multi-generational African Americans in our group that put flesh to the words of our texts that detail the impact of historical prejudices. In other words, this is not an academic exercise, this is the reality of life lived under and through the historical abuse of laws, processes, power, and privilege. You must deal with this reality.
