Respond to God’s Call to Seek Justice
God loves justice and calls His people to seek it. But how do we respond to our complex—and broken—criminal justice system?
Outrageous Justice is a free small group study developed by Prison Fellowship ® to help followers of Jesus explore the American criminal justice system through a biblical lens and learn hands-on ways to pursue justice, hope, and healing in your community.
WHY DO WE NEED OUTRAGEOUS JUSTICE?
God calls us to remember the prisoner (Hebrews 13:3)—a call that is more urgent than ever, as witnessed in the alarming statistics about our criminal justice system.
2.2 million Americans are in jail or prison.
70 million adults have a criminal record.
2.7 million children have a parent behind bars.
4.5 million Americans are on probation or parole.
2 out of 3 released prisoners will be re-arrested within three years.
28,000+ people are arrested every day.
