Our Latest Conversations

Does your faith feel insufficient in the face of so much injustice in our world?

Some Christians struggle to see how Jesus calls us to confront oppression. Others feel unequipped to take meaningful action. Even experienced leaders find it challenging to integrate justice into their work. 

But what if embodying your faith meant partnering with God to create wholeness — a world marked by peace, justice, and flourishing for all? 

Christians for Social Action helps Christians to deepen their commitment to justice, empowering individuals and communities for both personal and systemic transformation. 

What We Offer 

  • Education: Thought-provoking resources connecting faith and justice. 
  • Equipping: Practical tools for addressing injustice where you are. 
  • Activation: A community of scholars, practitioners, and activists committed to faith-fueled change.

Who We Serve 

  • Churches and Leaders seeking to integrate justice into their work. 
  • Individuals and Groups wanting to engage faith and justice holistically. 
  • Scholars and Practitioners looking for renewal and actionable, real-world strategies.

Our Guiding Principles

At Christians for Social Action, our guiding principles shape how we see the world, how we show up in it, and how we respond to injustice with faith, humility, and hope.
