Our world is crying out for justice--the doing of right and the righting of wrongs. George Floyd's murder on May 25, 2020 amplified this cry. In response, the Baptist Standard published a sixty-nine-week series of articles which now form the pages of this volume, Justice Looks Like...: Reflections on Living the Gospel in an Unjust World. Sixty-eight writers present honest, heartfelt accounts of what justice looks like to them.

Written by men and women of various ethnic backgrounds and various professions--all of them decisively Texas Baptists--these reflections offer up personal memories, passion, lament, anger, hope, exhortation, and perspectives on justice that are perhaps new, unsettling, enlivening, and empowering. Each entry is short and pithy and encourages readers to pursue further conversation and action. Taken together they present a vision of God, Scripture, and the Christian life saturated with justice. The hope is that those who encounter these reflections will not stop with this book but will continue to listen to others, learn from others, and live justly alongside others.
