Tending Sheep and Goats

At Agape we are often asked "Why do you emphasize social justice so much?" Others might ask why we are so passionate concerning ministries to the houseless, victims of abuse, those in trafficking or sex industry, and vulnerable people.  In a world where many faith based institutions can become focused on reaching the wealthy, powerful, or famous--the parable of the Sheep and Goats (Matthew 25:31-46) challenges us to value ministry to the vulnerable, Jesus' brothers and sisters, and be ready to stand before the throne of the Son of Man.
