In unpacking this gem of a verseMicah 6:8Rusty manages to be wise, insightful, and even laugh-out-loud funny. What a powerful resource for those who want to bring focus to their faith.
Christine Caine, founder, The A21 Campaign and Propel Women
Its hard to think of three qualities that are more neededby the church or in our country or in the worldthan these three. May Rustys book not only get widely read, may it get deeply realized.
John Ortberg, pastor, Menlo Church
This is a quiet book, which is, of course, always the most dangerous. There is breathing room and freedom in its pages, much like in Micah 6:8, the verse the book is based on. The simplicity of justice, mercy, and humility follows verses that heap more work upon us to please God.... Thousands of rams, ten thousand rivers of oil, my firstborn child... what will please God? The response is the whisper of these three words, and Rusty invites us to linger and rest in them. Your soul probably needs this book... mine did.
Nancy Ortberg, CEO of Transforming the Bay with Christ
One of the best parts of reading this book is knowing Rusty personally and watching him live this message out. Justice. Mercy. Humility. is a quick and necessary message that I need to hear over and over. If you aim to become more like Jesus, this book is worth the read.
Carey Nieuwhof, founding pastor, Connexus Church, Ontario, Canada
