Justice

We cannot live as Jesus’ disciples without pursuing Jesus’ justice in the world.

We believe in “all things made new,” in Jesus’ name.

Justice means right relationship with others and is God’s means of creating shalom (nothing missing, nothing broken) in the world. It is the embodiment of Jesus’ command to love our neighbors as ourselves. Justice, then, is both a characteristic of God and the right reaction of God's people when the kingdom of God encounters resistance. At LBCF, we seek to become a people who naturally express God’s love and justice in the world, caring for all people—and especially for the lonely, forgotten, broken, and marginalized—as God himself does
