The Genius of Justice

“In my Catholic tradition we might call this book a litany! A litany of contemporary people whose passion is faith-rooted justice seeking! What glorious nourishment for these challenging times. Let us walk this path together seeking justice and joy.”


—Simone Campbell, SSS, 2022 Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient





“In an era where conversations of faith, justice, compassion, and civility are marginalized, and in some cases demonized as unpatriotic, Tim Ahrens has offered a precious literary balm to the wounded soul of a nation. We must listen and learn from prophetic voices demanding we reshape our civic discourse on principles of compassion and just action.”


—Otis Moss III, senior pastor, Trinity United Church of Christ





“The Genius of Justice is a tour de force of faith leadership at this pivotal moment in our nation’s history as Christian Nationalists seek to use false religion to justify anti-democratic and violent behavior, threatening God’s vision of human dignity. Investing in strong multi-faith, multi-racial leadership could not be more important for such a time as this.”


—Jennifer Butler, author of Who Stole My Bible? Reclaiming Scripture as a Handbook for Resisting Tyranny
