When it comes to the question of social justice, churches generally end up having to choose between two poles: 'evangelical' and 'liberal.' Those on the 'evangelical' side battle for moral purity within the church, building up walls of protection against sin and wrongful cultural compromises, while those on the 'liberal' side prioritize social justice as the mark of a Christian, and the church functions as an agency to get people involved not to question an individual's moral choices. James 1:27
