CTUCC ConferenceCast #173: In Righteousness and Justice
Channel: SNEUCC
Date: 2014-05-29

A wedding and gathering of friends give Mary Nelson Abbott a new setting for Hosea's words of commitment, in which God promises Israel a marriage of "righteousness and justice, in steadfast love, and in mercy." It "reminded me that all our relationships -- not just romantic relationships... -- should always be based in righteousness and justice... Every interaction is an opportunity to make one another very, very happy, and to fill that place with love." In Saugatuck, 300 Nigerian flags declare a church's prayer and demand that Boko Haram militants release the schoolgirls they hold captive. CTUCC delegates to Korea learn about the aid provided to women who "entertain" US soldiers. The Newtown church reaches 300 -- and host Eric Anderson can't quite leave on sabbatical without sharing a few more thoughts.
