After Jesus shares this story, he asks “which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” After the expert in the law responded with, “the one who had mercy on him was his neighbor.” Jesus replied, “Go and do likewise.”
This is who Jesus has been and continues to be to us. He saw us in our brokenness, cleaned our wounds, and paid the ultimate price for our sins. But that was never the end of the story.
Jesus entered into our own brokenness so that we can enter into the pain of others. Being a neighbor requires more of us. It requires us to get our hands dirty and dive into the messy work of mercy and justice through our resources, our compassion, and the wholeness of our efforts.
The Jesus + Justice Campaign invites believers to a greater love for Jesus and to take action towards mercy and justice. We do this by connecting Jesus-centered justice organizations with like-minded believers who wish to go and do the same.
