Description
Bridge Building towards Biblical Justice & Civic Engagement is a 75-minute formation experience designed to move participants from charity-based assumptions about poverty toward a biblical vision of shalom rooted in justice and civic responsibility. Inspired by Sunshine Gospel Ministries’ BridgeBuilders story, the session begins by confronting good intentions that can unintentionally reinforce injustice. Through a poverty simulation, participants will wrestle with structural barriers shaping economic hardship. Scripture reflections on Jeremiah 29:7, Luke 4:18–19, and Amos 5:24 will reframe shalom as public justice. Participants will identify civic levers for change, embracing discipleship that engages systems, not just symptoms.
