Social Justice and Youth...
Kara Powell of Fuller's Center for Youth and Family Ministry has a great interview with Shane Claiborne. Check out the interview above, as well as taking a look at the new book that is authored by Kara and Chap Clark,
Deep Justice In A Broken World: Helping Your Kids Serve Others and Right the Wrongs Around Them
I'm looking forward to this book as I know we have been thinking a lot around here (Bel Air Pres) about how to get kids involved in issues of social justice around them. Something that goes beyond them purchasing clothing items where a portion of the money is donated to a social justice issue. I'm wrestling with this myself....
In January, our young adult community, The Foundry is brining out Shane Claiborne to speak, and our college ministry as well as many other ministries and people from the surrounding communities will be joining us. By that time I'm sure we will be hearing more about his new book,
Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals

Ooh, this book looks so good. It makes me glad to see more Christians coming out with books about social justice.
