The Wisdom of God walks along paths of justice and righteousness. Riches are the rewards that await those who walk with him on this path (Proverbs 8:19-21). What is justice and how does he intend us to carry it out? “The word (justice) comes from the Latin jus, meaning right or law. The Oxford English Dictionary defines the “just” person as one who typically “does what is morally right” and is disposed to “giving everyone his or her due,” offering the word “fair” as a synonym”[i]. Walking in justice and righteousness means walking in equality with every other member of humankind. It means walking in fairness and moral righteousness. Paths of patriarchy and racism are neither fair nor morally right when women and people of color receive less pay and less opportunities. These paths do not intersect with the wisdom of God, though travelers may call themselves Christ followers. Making a conscious choice to practice justice among humankind, takes courage. It takes courage to walk in fairness with those who are of a different gender and ethnicity. I challenge you today to take the path with me of justice and righteousness—a path that follows the Wisdom of God. This is a path of courage in caring for others as God modelled for us so precisely and beautifully. It takes courage to care!

Since The United Methodist Church General Conference Worldwide Charlotte May 2024 and the separation of another part of the Methodist Churches of their own General Governance, The United Methodist Church has changed their education of universities and colleges of divinity education to the new school showcase and places for new school inclusions. A process where education is coordinated with The United Methodist Churches. Well done. All my life in the Christian Church. Peace to religions. https://lnkd.in/dxuN9mSa

https://lnkd.in/eZxHHpvF Schoolhouse Rock Life, liberty, and justice" are foundational concepts often associated with the principles of democracy and human rights. Here's a brief overview of each: 1. **Life**: This concept emphasizes the fundamental right of every individual to live. It encompasses not just the physical existence of a person, but also the opportunity for a fulfilling life, including access to necessary resources such as food, shelter, and healthcare. 2. **Liberty**: Liberty refers to the individual's freedom to make choices without undue restraint or oppression. This includes freedom of speech, religion, and the right to pursue one's own path, as long as it does not infringe on the rights of others. It is a core principle in democratic societies that supports the protection of personal freedoms and autonomy. 3. **Justice**: Justice involves the fair treatment of individuals and the equitable application of laws and standards. It seeks to ensure that all individuals have access to due process and that wrongdoings are addressed fairly and appropriately. This also includes social justice, which pertains to the distribution of resources and opportunities in society. These principles are often enshrined in legal frameworks, constitutions, and international human rights documents, and they serve as guiding ideals for governments and societies worldwide.

Christian higher education is an outstanding option It seems not a day passes without hearing about the failures of American higher education. Christian higher education tells a different story and students should consider this option for many reasons. The intersection of academic pursuits with Christian principles is the intentional integration of faith and learning within the educational context. This approach seeks to harmonize intellectual exploration and scholarly inquiry with the foundational tenets of the Christian faith. In essence, the intersection of academic pursuits with Christian principles creates a holistic educational experience that goes beyond the acquisition of knowledge. It aims to develop individuals who are not only academically proficient but also ethically grounded, compassionate, and equipped to navigate the complexities of the world with a strong foundation in their Christian faith.
