• Most of us carry a definition of justice we picked up somewhere along the way — and it usually looks like payback. Someone wrongs you, someone wrongs others, and justice means they get what's coming to them. But what if that version of justice has almost nothing to do with what God actually means by the word? In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we're going to dig into what the Bible actually means by mercy and justice — and why they're not opposites. You'll discover how God's justice is really about restoration, and what it looks like to participate in that restorative work in the lives of people around you. In This Episode You’ll Learn: The biblical definitions of mercy and justice that will change how you see both
