Justice, whether civil, criminal or social, is a basic human need. Living in a society where justice is practiced and esteemed makes us feel safe.
This episode is a coversation between host Helen Todd and Matthew Martens, a successful attorney, seminary graduate and the author of "Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal." This conversation shines a light on both the commendable and deeply flawed aspects of the current system. Matthew's unique perspective as someone who has served on both sides of the courtroom provides invaluable insights into how we can align our justice system more closely with biblical principles.
He tackle pressing issues such as racial bias in jury selection, rigid sentencing structures, and the chronic underfunding of defense counsel for the poor. The case of Curtis Flowers serves as a poignant example of how systemic flaws can derail justice. Guided by biblical principles like accuracy, due process, and impartiality, Helen and Matt discuss ways to address these shortcomings and the role Christians can play in this crucial advocacy.
