"A social justice church is like a vegetarian who doesn't eat meat. You're saying the same thing twice."If it doesn't have social justice at the core, can you even call it a church?//If any think they are religious, and do not bridle their tongues but deceive their hearts, their religion is worthless. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.//This episode was written, recorded, and produced by Rev. Jim Keat.
