It is more than a mere movement, group, or cause. It is about
informing, organizing, and motivating Christians around the world to
persevere in prayer and advocacy in support of organizations already
working on the frontlines of human rights issues.

It is not exchanging a social cause for the gospel. It is
emulating Christ in compassion for the poor and speaking
out against injustice. It is acknowledging that any
semblance of justice within the human heart exists only
because God, the Creator and Originator of all justice,
placed it there and graciously allows us to bear His
image—broken as it may be—out into the world.
|
It is recognizing that the news overwhelms us, our lives distract us,
and our best intentions often elude us. Christian Advocacy Now is
about coming together in our churches and communities for inspiration
and accountability, so that we no longer wish there was something we
could do about injustice, but rather get on with doing it now—because
we should and we CAN!
