The Biblically Resilient podcast tackles one of the most polarizing cultural topics—the call for justice—by rooting the discussion entirely in scripture. Guest Alex Whitaker distinguishes the biblical ideal of Christian Justice from secular social justice, arguing that while the latter is often driven by an ideological perspective designed to divide, true Christian Justice comes from the Gospel of God.
Alex shares insights from his master's program, defining Christian Justice as the biblical ideal for treating one another, which starts by acknowledging that racism and oppression exist and seeking to understand the experiences of marginalized brothers and sisters (Black, Asian, Latino, women).
