Discussion 1
Read and meditate on II Corinthians 5:17-19
The reading addresses the multiple dimensions of crime and substance abuse. As a follower of Christ, how can we offer the ministry of reconciliation with these populations (choose one).
Give a concrete example of an action that flows from your personal commitment to the message of reconciliation.
Discussion 2
Your reading describes an "unjust system of justice" due to bias towards certain groups. Do you agree that our system demonstrates this bias? Why or why not? Use your reading to support your response.
Do you think the "Stopping the Cradle to Prison Pipeline" is an effective movement (look at additional sources and include these references in your response)?

Discussion 3
Read Psalm 32 and Eitzen (2018) Chapter on National Security.
Share how our security in Christ Jesus differs radically from human security against physical trauma and attack.
Discussion 4
Your reading describes Mega Economic trends (Eitzen, Chapter). Discuss how you have seen any of these trends in the community in which you live.
How do you see globalization contributing to the issue of work and the social problems described in the reading (i.e. dangerous work conditions, sweatshops, unemployment)?
