God does not give His people a ministry for which He does not give them the power to do it.

Half the Sky: Turning oppression into opportunity for women worldwide

Let us start with the biggest no brainer of injustice in the world and that is slavery.

God does not give His people a ministry for which He does not give them the power to do it.

The victims of injustice in our world do not need our spasms of passion; they need our long obedience in the same direction - our legs and lungs of endurance; And we need sturdy stores of joy.

Jesus wants to give you five things: extravagant compassion, moral clarity, sacrificial courage, persevering hope, and refreshing joy.

Deep within all of us there is a yearning to be brave. And like all of our deepest, truest and best yearning, it comes from how we were made.Courage-the power to do the right thing even when it is scary and hard- resonates deeply with the original shape of our soul.
