Social justice is a commendable cause and should at all costs be sought after.  However, like many things, our definitions are what separate us from agreeing on different issues.  Social Justice Warriors, a term that is being lauded over, has attempted (and to pop culture succeeded) to redefine the term of Social Justice to defend their positions on different issues.  It is fair to say that the current “warriors” have no real internal realization of what Social Justice is and have been using the term more as a reason for the violence showing up during the “protests” turned to riots.  How are Christians, meant to be the light of the world, intended to react to these seemingly important issues without discrediting their message?

Today’s Social Justice Warrior is different than that of the activists of yesteryear.  There is a lot of activity on social medias and main media that insights a lot of so called “activism” and Christianity usually ends up being the brunt of the argument.  Ryan and Stephen express their attitudes and their approach towards these “Social Media-Social Justice Warriors” and how the Christian should react to the injustice of this world. The guys open this can of worms and attempt to disassemble this particular elephant as they discus Social Activism and the Christian Response to the Social Justice Warrior.
