ARISE to Old Testament Societal Justice

ARISE to Old Testament Societal JusticeBoth the Old and New Testaments share a message that call for God’s people to care for the most vulnerable in our world. However, in some Christian circles today, the message of social justice is considered harmful. As those created in the image of God, how do we best ARISE as reflectors of our Creator when it comes to the issue of societal justice? Our #WholeLifeReflections for this week:Take some time to research and study ancient codes of justice (i.e. Hammurabi’s Code), and compare them to the law God gives the Israelites through Moses. How are they the same? How are they different?How can you apply the Old Testament teachings on social justice to your present life? How can you figuratively not reap the edges of your field and leave olives and grapes for the disadvantaged?There is too much oppression and pain in the world for one person to tackle it all. In what one area do you hear God calling you to ARISE and make a difference?What reflection(s) resonated with you most this week?  Let us know by using the information below:■ Text/Voicemail:  407-965-1607■ Email:  [email protected] NOW:  This Is Whole Life - https://this-is-whole-life.captivate.fm/listen Our companion podcast, This Is WholeLife, is where we dive deeper into the message and topic at hand with Pastor Ken and Pastor Jeff along with host Randy Magray.  It’s the perfect midweek commute podcast to stay in touch with what’s being talked about at WholeLife Church and we encourage your questions, comments, and feedback which we will share on the next episode!  Thank you for listening!  Our show is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeart Radio, and anywhere you listen to podcasts!  If you’ve enjoyed this episode, please share it with your family, friends, and on social media at the following links and while you’re there, say ‘hello’!  Twitter:  https://twitter.com/wholelifeorl Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wholelifeorlandoInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/wholelifeorlando NEXT WEEK 2/19/22:  God Knows What He’s Doing by Special Guest Dana EdmondTo learn more about WholeLife Church visit our website:  www.WholeLife.ChurchThe theme music for Speaking of Grace was written, produced, and performed by WholeLife Church’s own, Phillip Burks - https://www.phillipburks.com/.Use the #hashtags:  #WholeLifePodcast #WholeLifeReflections #ThisIsWholeLife #ThisIsUS #ARISE
