LTRP Note:<\/strong> The force behind this event that took place in June is Jim Wallis and his organization SoJourners. To understand the socialist, anti-biblical roots of this effort, read Mary Danielsen’s article\/booklet What You Need to Know About Jim Wallis and the Social-Justice Gospel.<\/em><\/a> It is important to  be aware of events such as the one described below because this is what the younger generations are being drawn into, and many of these young people are coming from Christian homes. The result is, they leave their biblical faith and exchange it for an anti-Christian lie. Your children, your grandchildren are being targeted. Also because environmentalism plays a huge role in this “new” spirituality, read Roger Oakland’s article\/booklet A Christian Perspective on the Environment.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 21-23, 2017, an event took place in Washington, DC called The Healing + Resistance Summit: World Change through Faith and Justice<\/a>.  The Summit is organized by Jim Wallis’ Sojourners Ministries and Magazine:  https:\/\/sojo.net\/<\/a>.  While many Christians do attend this Summit and while the stated purpose of Sojourners Ministries does use some Christian terms (erroneously) when talking about the “biblical” call to social justice and the need for “Christians” to “act on their faith” to bring world peace and justice,  Sojourners and their Summit is anything but biblical.  Jesus’ work on the Cross is not mentioned.  Man’s need for a personal Savior because of our fallen state and sinfulness is not addressed either.  Instead, Sojourners’ Healing + Resistance Summit believes that men and women can and should unite together to transform individuals, communities, the church, and the world in order to achieve justice and peace.  There is a strong contemplative emphasis (Yoga, centering prayer, body prayer, and spiritual direction) and ecumenical and interfaith emphases and participation as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Sojourners Ministries website, the following is the mission and vision of Sojourners: <\/strong>
Mission<\/strong>
“The mission of Sojourners is to articulate the biblical call to social justice, to inspire hope and build a movement to transform individuals, communities, the church, and the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vision<\/strong>
We envision a future in which Christians put their faith into action in the passionate pursuit of social justice, peace, and environmental stewardship, working in partnership with people of other perspectives, for the common good of communities, families and individuals. We articulate that vision, convene and mobilize constituencies, and build alliances for effective advocacy.”
https:\/\/sojo.net\/about-us\/who-we-are<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Sojourner’s The Healing + Resistance Summit 2017 promotional video, 300 activists, leaders, artists, and others gathered together in June to find new solutions toward justice as the world becomes more and more unjust.  The Summit investigates the power of healing and resistance through exploring 5 themes, which are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(1)  the power of story to mend gaps
(2)  truthtelling and ordering the world around truth
(3)  resistance of the “normalization of injustice” by the faithful
(4)  disruption of injustice in systems, which means reimagining and rebuilding the institutions of government, business, and church where injustice exists
(5)  healing because “sustainable dissent must also include reconciliation with our bodies, our relationships, and our God”
The purpose of the Summit is to give individuals a clear vision on how to fight injustice.

Some sessions from the Healing + Resistance Summit 2017 are: <\/strong>
Morning Yoga<\/strong>
“Yoga is an ancient mind-body practice that compliments any faith tradition. In a Christian context, yoga can be understood as \u201cbody prayer.\u201d Join us for an hour of centering the mind, heart, and body through body movement and breath work. You\u2019ll enjoy gentle stretching and intentional breathing as a way of bringing your whole self in service to God.”
Morning Centering<\/strong>
“A spiritual director and a featured artist will guide us into a grounded, prayerful space.”
Spiritual Direction Sessions<\/strong>
“Spiritual direction is an ancient spiritual discipline in which persons are assisted in observing God\u2019s presence and work in their lives. A spiritual director offers a listening, open, prayerful presence to another while they walk together with God. Most simply, a spiritual director \u201clistens to God on a person\u2019s behalf.\u201d
All participants are invited to engage one of our spiritual directors at The Summit.”
Praying with the Body<\/strong>
“We will learn several body prayer techniques and somatic and neuro\u2010kinetic exercises that will allow us to connect to centering breath, to release the mind, and to balance the nervous system. By entering into sacred movement we will allow for our bodies to usher us into a deeper experience with God.”
“Faiths” for Climate Action<\/strong>
“Religious\u2010environmentalism is now poised to evolve to a new level of reach and impact, with local faith communities coming together to join the new “glocal” (global\u2010local) climate and environmental movement. This session will trace key factors in the development of the religious\u2010environmental movement, analyze the current context, and offer a vision for the movement’s future that creates opportunities for holistic eco\u2010discipleship that will represent a foundation for church development in the anthropocene era.”
Courageous Conversations<\/strong>
“The profound level of global conflict, the apocalyptic disruptions in human and civil rights, and the vitriolic tensions in the U.S. call us to confront the power of our spiritual practices and strengthen our capacity to hold conversations and create dialogue across our different experiences. In order for us to continue creating the Beloved Community, we must increase our ability to listen, hear, understand, analyze, and empathize with those who possess different social identities and worldviews.”
