A Call to Imagination

As we journey down this winding road together, we remember the words of God in the book of Micah that remind us to, "Act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God." Or the words of Amos that proclaimed, "Let justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like a mighty stream." These words challenged the public leadership of its day to re-examine its treatment of the oppressed and marginalized. And it is in this same spirit that we, much like the prophets of old, imagine a new and hopeful reality for our down trodden communities today. For as aspiring social workers it is not our mere imagination that compels us to serve and advocate for others, but a transcendent vision that comes from God.
