WHAT IS OUTRAGEOUS JUSTICE?
AWAKENING CHRISTIANS TO THE NEED FOR JUSTICE THAT RESTORES
God calls His people to seek justice. But given the complexities of our criminal justice system, how can the followers of Jesus have a clear understanding of criminal justice issues and take action to promote peace and restoration?
To that end, Prison Fellowship® is excited to release the Outrageous Justice small-group curriculum, designed to awaken Christians to the need for justice that restores. Small groups will learn about the challenges in the American criminal justice system and explore how Christians can respond in hands-on ways to pursue justice and bring about true hope, restoration, and healing.
