Some Good Reading Material

I'm technically still out on maternity leave until October, but that's given me a chance to catch up on some reading! A couple of recent reads seem fitting to recommend to Project Peace-minded folks, since they align quite well with PP's emphasis on justice:

The Dangerous Act of Worship: Living God's Call to Justice by Mark Labberton (Pastor of First Pres of Berkeley).

Just Courage by Gary Haugen (founder of International Justice Mission).

Both are challenging exhortations to break out of the comfortable rut that the church often finds itself in (what Haugen calls a "cul-de-sac") and wake up to the call to seek justice for the oppressed in our own communities and around the world.
