These aren't bad things, of course. But they're safe and comfortable and easy. And there's a reason they're not satisfying your desire for something more significant and meaningful-we're created by God for adventure.
Prepare to step off the well-trodden path of your spiritual journey, and take the road less traveled—one that's also far more rewarding! With tremendous power, simplicity, godly courage, International Justice Mission president Gary Haugen leads readers into a more substantial expression of faith and love through the preservation of human dignity, value and worth in Just Courage: God's Great Expedition for the Restless Christian. Haugen explores what it looks like to care about those who suffer, illuminating his own conviction that engaging in the fight for justice is the most deeply satisfying way to enter into God's great expedition.
