As Davis emphasizes, the God of the Bible is a God of justice, and as his people, Christians are compelled to seek justice for the oppressed. What is justice? Davis argues:

Justice is giving to those who have nothing. Biblical justice is about making sure the weak are protected from abuse and showing the love of God in a practical, tangible way. It is about those who have giving to those who have not.

Justice is action. It means making wrongs right, bringing blessing instead of curse, and giving our lives to serve others in need. Without action, what we do lacks power. …

Justice is love. This is the essence of what Jesus came to teach. The principle for every act and attitude is love of God and our neighbor. (Chapter 7)

Mother Teresa was a Christ-follower who fought for justice as she looked at the world through God’s eyes. Davis highlights her example, encouraging other Christians to follow her in her commitment to live out Jesus’ words:

She saw a humanity that was broken because of poverty and disease—a humanity that ached to know the love of Jesus. She extended grace and mercy to those who were most in need of it. She met people—people created in the image of God—right where they were, in the most disparaging of circumstances. Mother Teresa was compelled to serve the needs of the poor, because that is exactly what God would do. This is the work of justice. (Chapter 7)
