“So the question is not whether we will be extremists, but what kind of extremists we will be. Will we be extremists for hate or for love? Will we be extremists for the preservation of injustice or for the extension of justice?”
- Martin Luther King Jr.
The word “extremism” automatically generates negative connotations. When we think of extremists, especially in today’s world, we think of people and/or groups who hold ideologies that are deemed dangerous or hateful, leading to the kind of violence and injustice that have become so pervasive and prevalent. However, what if we practiced the kind of radical extremism that Jesus practiced, specifically in regards to love, peace, and justice?
2023 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity
January 18-25, 2023
Join us and many faithful from Christian denominations around the world for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, Jan. 18-25, 2023. Our theme for 2023 is “Do Good, Seek Justice.”
The theme is inspired by Isaiah 1:12-18, which laments a lack of justice among the People of God. Yet it also promises redemption by encouraging acts of justice. Like Isaiah, we hope to inspire a renewed desire and effort for justice among the Christian peoples around the world.
