White Water Justice | Part 1: Get Onboard! | Genesis 2:8-14; Revelation 22: 1-5; Amos 5:24

In this first part of a new teaching series, Paul helps us to ready our raft as we prepare to embark the white waters of justice. Beginning in the head waters of Genesis, he invites us to consider the Bible's vision of original justice, challenges us to consider the ways in which we have misinterpreted this vision of justice, and reminds us of the need to read the Bible alongside victims of injustice if we are going to be able to follow the flow of God's Spirit in the world.
