Grace to you and peace, from God our Creator and the Lord Jesus Christ! “Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.” You may be familiar with this quotation from the 5th chapter of the prophet Amos. It is a rallying point for social action groups and has been for some time. Hearing it in the context of the longer pericope (section of text) that makes up our Hebrew Bible lesson for tomorrow might draw a less comfortable or encouraging reaction, however. What exactly are we called to say and do when the world around us appears less than just or righteous?
