Let Justice Roll Down

I highly recommend that you read Let Justice Roll Down by John Perkins, as it not only epitomizes redemption, reconciliation and strength, but it embodies the transforming power of Jesus Christ. Perkins, the founder of Voice of Calvary ministries, grew up in New Hebron, Mississippi as a son of a sharecropping family; constantly privy to the system of racism and prejudice. Through his various trials and tribulations—ranging from his brother’s death, to enduring a brutal beating at the hands of white law enforcement officers, Perkins was able to understand that only the power of Christ’s crucifixion on the cross and the glory of his resurrection could heal the deep racial wounds in both black and white people of America. This book takes you on an incredible journey of this man’s faith, while also teaching us important lessons of evangelism and the kind of social action that should come from accepting Christ as our Savior.  - Katherine Bogue, CPC intern
