The Lutheran Center at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln is partnering with Saint Paul United Methodist Church and Justice in Action, an interfaith coalition of 20 faith communities in Lincoln and Lancaster County, to host a summit with keynote speaker the Rev. Dominique Gilliard.

The summit, “Justice Journey,” will begin at 7 p.m. March 28 at Saint Paul United Methodist Church, 1144 M St. in Lincoln.

Gilliard, director of racial righteousness and reconciliation for the Love Mercy Do Justice initiative of the Evangelical Covenant Church, will lead the summit. He is the author of “Rethinking Incarceration: Advocating for Justice that Restores,” which won a 2018 Book of the Year Award for InterVarsity Press and was named Outreach Magazine’s 2019 Social Issues Resource of the Year. Gilliard’s latest book, “Subversive Witness: Scripture’s Call to Leverage Privilege,” won Englewood Review of Books’ 2021 Book of the Year Award.

The summit is the conclusion of an extensive project that also included a weekly class and educational trip across the Midwest. All are invited to join in conversation with other advocates to consider how best to address social, environmental and economic justice issues that challenge communities, and how to increase equity, diversity and inclusion in that work.
