Just Mercy: Doing Justice for the Condemned - Progressive (Micah 6:8)
Bryan Stevenson in Just Mercy does justice: fighting for those wrongly condemned. He loves mercy: seeing the humanity in people society has discarded. He walks humbly: learning from his clients, acknowledging his own limitations. Progressive theology centers Micah 6:8 as Scripture's ethical summary. "Do justice" (mishpat) means systemic action to right wrongs—not charity but change. "Love mercy" (chesed) means steadfast, covenant love for the vulnerable. "Walk humbly" means recognizing our own complicity and need. This is what God requires—not correct doctrine but righteous action.
