Renowned pastor and bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet Timothy Keller shares his most provocative and illuminating message yet.

It is commonly thought in secular society that the Bible is one of the greatest hindrances to doing justice. Isn’t it full of regressive views? Didn’t it condone slavery? Why look to the Bible for guidance on how to have a more just society? But Timothy Keller challenges these preconceived beliefs and presents the Bible as a fundamental source for promoting justice and compassion for those in need. In Generous Justice, he explores a life of justice empowered by an experience of grace: a generous, gracious justice. This book offers readers a new understanding of modern justice and human rights that will resonate with both the faithful and the skeptical.

Praise for Generous Justice

“Keller shows us how a . . . spirit—one of generosity coupled with justice—can thoroughly alter not only a person but, ultimately, society as a whole. . . . Many gems are to be mined from Generous Justice.” —The Washington Times

“Generous Justice is the best book I’ve ever read about putting Christian faith into action. . . . Were all Christians to respond to Keller’s understanding of Biblically based justice, it wouldn’t simply result in more social programs, food and shelter, and health care for the needy. It would result in a world defined by shalom, a comprehensive peace, a world in which human beings flourish.” —Beliefnet.com

“This is the most biblically informed and intellectually careful (read the footnotes!) ‘social justice’ book I know of. Justice skeptics and justice proponents alike will learn from Generous Justice.” —Kevin DeYoung, TheGospelCoalition.org

“A great book . . . Keller cuts through the highly charged rhetoric and presents a clear, biblical call for the church to ‘do justice.'” —EFCAToday.org
