Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 278 pages. The modern restorative justice movement, perhaps one of the most important so cial movements of our time, was born in a Christian home to Christian parents, s pecifically to Christian peace workers striving to put their faith into action i n the public arena. The first major book on the subject was written primarily fo r a church audience and drew deeply on biblical themes and values. But as restor ative justice has moved into the mainstream of criminological thought and policy , the significance of its originating spiritual impulse has been minimized or de nied, and subsequent theological scholarship has done little to probe the releva nce of restorative perspectives for doctrine and discipleship.In this col lection of essays, Christopher D. Marshall, a biblical scholar and restorative p ractitioner who has devoted his career to exploring the relationship between the two fields, considers how peacemaking Christians can honor the witness and auth ority of Scripture, including its apparently violence-endorsing strands, as they strive to join in God?s great work in Christ of ?reconciling to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace through the blood of his cross?

Paperback. Condition: New. By bringing together the insights of ecclesial ethics, an approach that emphasizes the distinctive nature of the church as the community that forms its mind and character after its reading of Scripture, with the theory and practice of restorative justice, a way of conceiving justice-making that emerged from the Mennonite-Anabaptist tradition, this book shows why a theological account of the theory and practice of restorative justice is fruitful for articulating and clarifying the witness of the church, especially when faced with conflict or wrongdoing. This can help extend the church's imagination as to how it might better become God's community of restoration as it reflects on the ways in which the justice of God is taking shape in its own community."How does an ecclesial context shape the theological apprehension and praxis of justice?" This question orientates the book. In particular, it asks how, in view of its members having been admitted into God's restoring justice in Christ, the church might embody in the world this same justice of restoring right relationships. While Christian reflection on the nature of justice has tended to favour a judicial and retributive conception of justice, it will be argued that the biblical understanding of the justice of God is best understood as a saving, liberating, and restorative justice. It is this restorative conception that ought to guide the community that reads Scripture so that it might be embodied in life.…
