"...learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow."
Many American kids today—even in Christian churches—don't have a full idea of the challenges presented by brutality, by crying children, by grieving widows, let alone have any idea what in the world they can do about it! That's about to change.
The Justice Mission is a video-based curriculum that depicts the stark facts about oppression and injustice around the world...and presents a Bible-based approach to dealing with them! In the DVD segments, students will follow the visit of four American teens to squalid corners of India. They will be prompted to think again, and again, about the evil they find...and about bullying, prejudice, and attitudes that God hates in their own neighborhoods and the hallways of their schools.
The Justice Mission is a partnership between Youth Specialties and the International Justice Mission, an organization that, through educating the church and mobilizing effective intervention, serves those who cannot rely on local authorities for relief. The Justice Mission surely will ignite holy passion for the oppressed victims of injustice.
It will change lives—of your students in these sessions, and of untold numbers of victims across God's earth. In one kit, you'll find:
5 video segments and 5 leader-prompted sessions of depth and foundational clarity on the following subjecs—along with an abundance of worksheets, action items, group activities, journaling assignments, web links, and agenda-items:
- Oppression
- What God Hates
- Joining The Fight Against Injustice
- God's Vision
- Do It Now
Beyond summer mission trips, beyond child sponsorship, beyond personal piety, The Justice Mission is the next step in doing what Jesus would do.
This curriculum includes a music CD featuring music by top Christian artists, produced by Squint Entertainment (producer of Roaring Lambs), and a video for use with the leader's guide.
