The Way Forward - God’s Kind of Justice
Community of Christ President Steve Veazey continues The Way Forward video series with “God’s Kind of Justice.” |
The church wide discussion of nonviolence, initiated by World Conference Resolution 1319, is related to pursuing God’s vision of holistic salvation and peace for people, groups, societies, and the planet.
This is not a new topic. However, there are many questions to explore. Please visit the Community of Christ Peace & Justice webpage for additional information. |

Community of Christ Oblation Ministry
Oblation was established to help the church be faithful to its commission to care for the poor and needy (Doctrine and Covenants 42:8). The law and practice of the church since this action of the 1917 Conference (GCR 773) has been to receive funds during all Communion services for the express purpose of the care of the poor and needy.
Our testimony as Christians is that God loves everyone including those in need. We also believe that there is “enough and to spare,” and that God shares in abundance “good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over”.

President Steve Veazey continues The Way Forward video series with “Poverty Traps.” Many members and friends are trapped in poverty. This is caused by economic and political systems, plus human greed—that means people caught in poverty don’t have the same opportunities as others.
How can different areas of the church create ways to give from their kind of abundance and receive what is needed for mutual enrichment? |

“From the earliest days you have been given a sacred principle that declares the inestimable worth of all persons. Do not forget. The One who created all humankind grieves at the shameful divisions within the human family. A prophetic people must work tirelessly to tear down walls of separation and to build bridges of understanding. You hold precious lives in your hands. Be gentle and gracious with one another. A community is no stronger than the weakest within it. Even as the One you follow reached out to those who were rejected and marginalized, so must the community that bears his name.” D&C 162:6
