Justice Disciple Course

  • Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church 921 Madison Avenue New York, NY, 10021 United States (map)

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus’ disciples follow him, learn from him, are challenged by him, and ultimately are prepared to continue his work after his resurrection due to their experiences together. Inspired by this, we’ve created a Justice Disciples course design for us to come together in the spirit of Jesus’ call to justice to help us explore our faith, explore concepts, learn tools, and practice spirit-filled justice work in community. Join us as we come together to learn how to be agents of God’s call to justice, mercy, and love in the world.

Sessions are 90 minutes and involve Scripture, prayer, and embodied practice. Topics include:

  1. Exploring Identities and Grounding our Work in the Self

  2. Examining the Intersections of Race and Other Identities

  3. The Discipline of Decentering and the Challenge of Re-Centering

  4. Creating Courage: Practical Tools to Face Self-Censorship and De-escalate Resistance

  5. Creative Approaches to Identifying Partners, Assets, and Actions
