Introducing Bridges4Justice
Biblical justice originates in the heart of God. See Psalm 89:14; Micah 6:8, and Zechariah 7:9. God’s people care about the oppressed and those who are trafficked, but often lack awareness and opportunity to get involved. Bridges4Justice bridges that gap by providing practical opportunities to participate in God’s work of justice in our broken world.
Our Story
The vision for Bridges4Justice began with a group of 16 followers of Christ who traveled together to Asia in 2012 to learn more about trafficking. As they saw the needs they also saw the opportunities. They came back commited to networking together to make a difference in the fight against human trafficking and to provide practical opportunities for others to also participate in Biblical justice locally and globally.
Stronger Together
Committed to Biblical Justice
We are a network of followers of Christ committed to doing God’s work of Biblical justice in our broken world.
We are stronger together as we bring our differing gifts and skills together in the work of Biblical justice, all for God’s glory.
Priority of Relationships
From the start, Bridges4Justice has been built on relationships. We partner with like-minded organizations and freedom businesses that are owned and operated by local believers around the globe and with a network of individuals and churches in the States who market products, give for the needs, and use their skills to make a difference on the frontlines.
Our Global Partners
Bridges4Justice partners with like-minded organizations and freedom businesses globally. We maintain close relationships with our global partners, encouraging, equipping, empowering as we come alongside to engage together in the fight against human trafficking and the work of uplifting those at risk.

Statement of Faith
Bridges4Justice is a faith-based Christian organization. We ascribe to the Apostles Creed, a statement of faith that has been foundational to the church from the early Christian days.
In addition to our foundational statement of faith, we ascribe to the Lausanne Covenant, widely regarded as one of the most significant documents in modern church history. It emerged from the First Lausanne Congress in 1974, with John Stott as its Chief Architect. Of particular significance for Bridges4Justice in our pursuit of Biblical justice for God’s glory is the Lausanne Covenant’s statement of social responsibility that expresses how Christ followers are to live out their faith with God’s “concern for justice and reconciliation throughout human society and for the liberation of men and women from every kind of oppression.”
