The prophet Micah declares that God requires 3 things of us. He tells us to love mercy, act justly, and walk humbly with our God. Last week we focused on what it means to love mercy. The focus of this message is around what it means to “Do Justice”. The truth is that a person’s worth has nothing to do with any of the outward markers we normally associate with success. Every person has unsurpassable worth because Jesus thought they were worth dying for and paying an unsurpassable price. Our main task of discipleship and our most fundamental call is to agree with God about the worth of all people. To serve and regard all people from that point of view is the ultimate determiner of whether we are acting justly towards another person. On the other hand, to the degree that we define others by our judgments is the degree to which we are acting unjustly towards another.

In Loving Mercy we will tackle the prophet Micah’s depiction of what God requires of us. Loving mercy means loving it when people don’t get the negative consequences they deserve. If justice is about collecting a debt, then loving mercy is about cancelling debt. In this counter cultural Kingdom of God, we can’t truly love mercy until we realize the extent to which we depend on it.

The Village Church

The church is Christ's hands and feet to our broken world. On this special Global Sunday, three members of our very own congregation were interviewed by Dr. Sams. They shared stories of healing, reconciliation, and God's power to save from places like Haiti, Columbia, and the Congo. That probably would have been enough hope for one Sunday. But there was more. Jocelyn White from International Justice Mission brought us stories of the gospel in action all over the globe. If you want to hear about the power of prayer, God's power to save, and how people can take tangible parts in solving God-sized problems, you need to see this.
