"Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence"

Show Notes  In this episode, Mimi and Kim interview Brad Twedt of International Justice Mission (IJM). Brad explains IJM's work to address violence against women and children in the machismo culture of Central and South America. IJM works with the police departments, prosecutors, departments of justice, and local community anti-violence advocates to change the culture of violence against women. As they face powerful forces, they find that reliance on God in praise, supplication, and lament gives them the strength in their work.  Disclaimer  The opinions expressed in CBE's Mutuality Matters' podcast are those of its hosts or guests and do not purport to reflect the opinions or views of CBE International or its members or chapters worldwide.

This season we are focusing on justice as an aspect of spiritual formation and we believe Lent to be the perfect season to explore this connection. Using A Just Passion: A Six-Week Lenten Journey, and the lectionary, we will look at various aspects of justice, its importance to God and why the modern church has often regrettably failed to live out God's call to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with the Lord.”   Ruth is joined by Gary Haugen on today's episode. Gary Haugen has spent most of his career fighting injustice at the systemic level as a lawyer and founder of International Justice Mission. Ruth and Gary discuss the moment Gary realized he'd grown up his whole life in the church never once hearing a message about how much God cared about justice. They talk about the ways in which the poor are chronically vulnerable to violence, how the church often isn't doing work that addresses this issue, and how, at IJM, attention to their own spiritual formation is crucial in sustaining their justice work.   Lectionary scripture for this week: 1 Samuel 16:1-13 Psalm 23 Ephesians 5:8-14 John 9:1-41   Mentioned in this episode: Just Courage by Gary Haugen The Locust Effect by Gary Haugen Gary Alan Haugen is an American attorney who is the Founder, CEO, and former President of International Justice Mission, a global organization that protects the poor from violence throughout the developing world. Gary has been recognized by the U.S. State Department as a Trafficking in Persons “Hero” – the highest honor given by the U.S. government for anti-slavery leadership.  He is the author of several books, including Good News About Injustice (Intervarsity Press) and, most recently, The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence (Oxford University Press).

In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 21 (Year C in the lectionary cycle): Luke 16:19-31; 1 Timothy 6:6-19; Psalm 91:1-6, 14-16; Jeremiah 32:1-3a, 6-15.We discuss Jesus's parable of the rich man and Lazarus wherein He aptly describes the human situation and the fact that, without repentance & the reorientation that comes through God's Word, we all prioritize our own comfort & ignore the suffering of others. We hear Paul's warnings against the love of money and cravings greed stirs. We also discuss how our attitude to money reveals something about our heart toward God and our neighbor and how hopeful it is to follow the Lord, who is defined by mercy, generosity, and concern for suffering.

In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 19 (Year C in the lectionary cycle): Luke 15:1-10; 1 Timothy 1:12-17; Psalm 14; Jeremiah 4:11-12, 22-28.We consider Jesus' parables about the lost sheep and the lost coin (or the good woman!) and the ways they reveal the celebration over repentance and read Paul's personal testimony of the riches of Christ's mercy. We find the Psalm and Jeremiah's prophetic words to also name the depths of evil, oppression, and arrogance of those who think they are accountable to no one. Over it all, we remember the riches of Christ's mercy and redemptive work of His seeking and finding that which is lost.Notes:-The Lord is My Courage: Stepping Through Shadows of Fear Toward the Voice of Love, by: K.J.

Jordan Raynor sits down with Victor Boutros, CEO of the Human Trafficking Institute, to talk about the “tangible hope” Victor and his team have for decimating human trafficking in this generation, why Victor has opted for a “master of one” as opposed to a “master of none” strategy for his career, and how building IKEA furniture with our kids can give us a picture of how our work partners with our Heavenly Father's work.Links Mentioned:Victor Boutros on LinkedInVictor Boutros on TwitterHuman Trafficking InstituteThe Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of ViolenceMaster of OneMere ChristianityMy Bookshelf

As founder of International Justice Mission, Gary Haugen fights the chronically neglected global epidemic of violence against the poor. While a member of the 1994 United Nations team investigating war crimes in Rwanda, Gary Haugen’s eyes were opened to the appalling extent of violence in the developing world. Upon his return to the US, he founded International Justice Mission, an organization devoted to rescuing victims of global violence including trafficking and slavery.
