Reforming Criminal Justice

Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal by Matthew T. Martens explores how the principles of love for neighbor, rooted in Scripture, can inform and inspire meaningful reform within the American criminal justice system. Drawing on his legal experience and theological insights, Martens analyzes the system's historical development and current practices, highlighting areas where it falls short of biblical standards. With a focus on justice for both victims and the accused, the book offers a biblical framework and practical considerations for pursuing justice that reflects Christian love.
