Episode Description from the Publisher

This week, Alex sits down with Justin and Andrew to unpack James 5:1–6 and one of the strongest rebukes in the New Testament. They explore what James is really saying about wealth, oppression, justice, and God’s heart for the vulnerable, while wrestling with difficult questions about how Christians should respond to injustice today. The conversation ranges from modern economic systems and moral responsibility to the prophets, church history, and why Scripture so consistently tells its story from the perspective of the oppressed. Finally, they reflect on what it means to trust God’s justice without surrendering our responsibility to love our neighbors well.Listen to Andrew's messageListen to Jordan's messageListen to Justin's messageSubscribe to our Messages podcast (Apple Podcasts / Spotify)Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com—About Riverview ChurchRiverview Church is a multi-venue church based in Lansing, Michigan, where we invite everyone to know and enjoy Jesus as we stumble together in our pursuit to love like Him.
