ANDY BURNHAM
For twenty-five years, Bishop James Jones has been working on the
frontlines to try and create a more just and merciful world. In
_Justice for Christ's Sake_, he reflects on the work he has been a
part of and the ways in which justice and faith go hand in hand.
With touching honesty, he tells of his time as a Bishop and his role
on three key independent panels into matters of national conscience -
including chairing the panel that investigated the Hillsborough
Disaster of 1989, when ninety-six Liverpool football fans tragically
lost their lives. All the dimensions of justice that James has
experienced - environmental, social, racial, political and judicial -
are vividly conveyed, as he offers up the lessons he has learned in
his search for a better, fairer way to live and how the answers might
be found in the teachings of Jesus.
_Justice for Christ's Sake _is a remarkable and fascinating Christian
memoir, that offers a unique perspective on some of the most
significant inquiries of the last three decades. It is a book that
encourages us all in our longing for justice, with insight born from
first-hand experience, and will leave you with a better of
understanding of events that have shaped conversations on justice in
Britain.
Most of us long deep down for a fairer world, however selfishly we may
act on occasions. James Jones reassures us that we are not alone and
that we can all be part of the fight for justice for Christ's sake.
