What We Do

Education

We educate church, seminary, and university audiences on the importance of human rights to a Christian understanding of justice. Our innovative, high-quality programs illuminate human rights from theological, spiritual, historical, and legal perspectives. They help participants understand the profound relationship between Christian values and human rights—and prepare them to put this knowledge into action, in their communities and beyond.

Thought Leadership

We voice bold faith support for justice and the equal rights of all people, in the Church and the public square. Through sermons, speaking engagements, publications, and interviews, we explain how Christian values and human rights principles affirm one other. Our goal in speaking out is to honor the human dignity and rights of the marginalized and grow the national faith movement for justice.

Advocacy

We marshal the cultural, spiritual, and intellectual resources of the Christian tradition to advocate with a prophetic voice for human rights for all. Our advocacy focuses on the laws, policies, and practices of the United States, with a current emphasis on gender justice and equality. Justice Revival leads the #Faith4ERA campaign, an interfaith initiative to achieve constitutional equality through the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Collaboration

We forge relationships and foster collaboration between Christian congregations and human rights organizations. Recognizing the value of working together across boundaries, we seek to bridge the gap between Christian and human rights communities. We pursue alliances with diverse religious, interfaith, and secular movements for justice and human rights. Invite us to your community so we can work together.

Theory of Change

In the U.S. today, Christianity is too often invoked to oppose rather than to uphold human rights. Justice Revival was created to target the root causes of this problem and bring about transformative change.”

  • Through faith-based education and thought leadership, we build essential knowledge and understanding of human rights among faith communities.
  • By advocating for human rights from a Christian worldview that affirms the sacred human dignity of all, we counteract religious complicity in oppression.
  • Through partnerships with other leading advocacy groups and coalitions, we promote collaboration between faith and secular human rights supporters.

In all that we do, Justice Revival pursues a radical transformation of the current conditions—empowering people of faith to contribute to the beloved community by actively safeguarding human rights and insisting that our public officials do the same.
