Working Together in a Community Garden: Justice in CTC, EG, TTL

Urban Farm DB summary

Drawing on the author's ministry experience in Guatemala, this essay (2015) examines themes of injustice, loving service, need, and promise across three documents — the Lausanne Movement's The Cape Town Commitment, the apostolic exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, and the ecumenical mission and evangelism text Together Towards Life — with a particular focus on justice and Christian mission. It depicts the elements common to these texts through the image of a community garden exhibiting biodiversity and requiring a diversity of talents to flourish.
