“Can you imagine what would happen if a group of people with untold resources,
passion and energy started asking the question, ‘How do we hear the cry of the oppressed?’  What if they were actually willing to wade into the cultural, economic, racial, global and personal issues involved without fear, with the confidence that no matter how painful, messy and volatile it got, Jesus would guide them the whole way?  You'd have some church on your hands.” 
-Rob Bell


That is what we're trying to do at the Awakening.  We don't get it right all the time; sometimes we're way off the mark.  But as people trying to take the words of Jesus seriously, we believe that God calls us to act for social justice.  As the prophet Amos envisioned, "Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream."
