Agents of Reconciliation
The Institute for Justice and Reconciliation (IFJR) is committed to helping churches confront and overcome unethical and prejudicial practices, ensuring they reflect the love, justice, and unity of Christ. By addressing these critical areas, we empower churches to become true agents of reconciliation, transforming their communities and restoring their witness to the gospel.
To Build
As Amos 5:24 declares:
"But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!"
Together, we can build churches that embody this vision, where justice, equity, and reconciliation flourish for all.
