COURSE INTRO
The Church and Social Justice:
What is the mission of the church and its significance for social justice? This course allows you to delve deeply into the various factors that cause inequality and analyse the types of responses the church has and could make to them.

COURSE INTRO
Theology of Social Justice:
This unit provides a biblical theology of holistic mission that takes seriously the responsibility of the church to address issues of justice and poverty. It argues that the good news of the Kingdom of God has vital implications for social and cultural values. Too often in our western society we see political ideology claiming these values. As Christians we need to reclaim them as expressions of our faith, not our politics, and as the reflection of God’s Kingdom on earth.
