Social Work as an Act of Justice w/ Lowell Herschberger

I recently had the privilege of interviewing my friend Lowell Herschberger about his work as a social worker. I loved my conversation with him as a way of learning how to do justice as disciples of Jesus. 

We get into what it’s like to work with a secular government, how Christians can serve as social workers in good conscience, and much more. 

In the expanded version, we spend 10-15 minutes talking about the role of gratitude in the work of justice at the very end. You can access that here.

I’d love to hear your feedback when you’re done. Feel free to share in the comments below!
