Generous JusticeTimothy KellerRenowned pastor-theologian Timothy Keller explores how the Bible advocates for the poor and calls us to be their defenders, and seek justice for the poor, marginalised, and oppressed. Keller shows how the poor are particularly vulnerable and how Scripture references to justice for the poor outnumber the rich by 100/1. Keller calls us to a gracious approach to this as we promote peace, enable human flourishing, give and act generously, and show an authentic faith through our actions. Challenging and profound!

Clothed with StrengthSarah AllenThis is a powerful account of how four Christian women from the 18th and 19th centuries fought injustice and changed the course of history. Protten was a former slave who arguably became the mother of modern missions, More was a playwright & poet who became an activist against slavery, Raynard was a pioneering social worker, and Butler was a suffragette who campaigned against child prostitution and human trafficking. They come together in this book to show us what God has done through the lives of these women who worked with others for the greater good and to eleviate human pain and suffering, which inspires us to see what can happen today when we have the same courage!
Good News to the PoorTim ChesterIn this book Tim Chester shows us how the gospel and social action are not mutually exclusive, and in fact the latter serves the former. Chester shows how social action isn't something evangelicals should shy away from but actively promote saying that social action provides a context and environment for the proclamation of the gospel. To that end, argues Ash, we should always be seeking more ways to serve society and challenge our political leaders to exercise power in a godly way. This is a must-read for anyone considering this topic!
