    "When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers" (Proverbs 21:15). But what if the justice system is unjust?

    This month, attorney Matthew Martens joins us on the Connecting Podcast. He has both prosecuted and defended accused murderers, served a US Supreme Court Justice, and worked for the President Bush Administration.

    In his 25+ year career, he is one of a few attorneys who has won cases in all four areas of law: civil plaintiff, civil defendant, criminal prosecution, and criminal defendant.

    Let's discover what the Bible has to say about justice, and Matt's new book, Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal.

    Becoming like Christ is a process, not an event. While we may only remember three or four dramatic life moments, grace transforms us in the 10,000 little moments of everyday life.

    So when Drew Dyck wrote his book, Just Show Up: How Small Acts of Faithfulness Change Everything, we had to invite him on to the podcast. He's hilarious, brilliant, and transparent.

    Faithful living in a fallen world can be exhausting, but the gospel is refreshing! Drew will remind you of that by pointing to Jesus!

    "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." - Philippians 1:6
