To cultivate individuals who prioritize serving others and promoting social justice—a 'man for others' deeply committed to love.

The Church now recognizes social justice and liberation of the oppressed are fundamental components of its mission.

A type of education that emphasizes social responsibility and the pursuit of fairness and equality for all individuals.

Previous Jesuit educational approaches may not have adequately prepared students for participation in justice and social change efforts.

Individuals who live for others as opposed to pursuing self-interest. This is a key educational goal.

Focus in education on themes of social equity and fairness for all, as mandated by the church.

The Church's responsibility to promote justice, advocate for the oppressed, and engage in social change.

Love for God, without justice, is meaningless. True love always involves social justice.

Jesuit schools have not sufficiently prepared students for justice action and witness.

A spirit of seeking God's will, recognizing Christ's call, and adapting to changing times.

A constant process of recognizing God's guidance in various situations.

A method by St. Ignatius to make concrete decisions aligning with God's will.

Current events and social trends.

Fairness and righteousness in action; addressing societal issues.

Addressing societal injustices.

A gathering of bishops to discuss justice in the world.

A significant document with an emphasis on social justice.

A significant Church council shaping modern Catholic thought.

A strong call to action for justice in 1971 (Pope Paul VI).

A change in heart and action; transformation.

Teachings and message of Jesus.

Activities and endeavors done by people.

Sin's influence extends beyond a person's core beliefs and actions, affecting their overall life, often unconsciously.

Jesus' mission was to free us from sin and its consequences, not just at the core of our being but in all aspects of our lives.

Personal conversion extends to structural reform. Transforming our inner lives should lead to transforming our institutions and social systems.

Social systems and institutions built on injustice embody the lasting effects of sin, perpetuating inequality and encouraging further sin.

St. John uses 'world' to describe the social realm where sin manifests, similar to 'concupiscence' in the personal sphere.

Spiritual discipline focused on purifying not just our inner lives but also the social structures and injustices surrounding us.

Winning back our whole selves for God requires winning back our whole world for God. We cannot separate personal transformation from working for social justice.

The fight for justice is a continuous process that will never end completely in this life, but it is still crucial and rewarding work.

God's grace can produce partial successes, even if our efforts for justice don't achieve a complete victory.

Those who fight for justice will face opposition from the 'world' as they challenge the status quo and its injustices.

Those who suffer for justice are blessed, just as Jesus was, and their actions will ultimately bring goodness and healing to the world.

Technology is a tool for understanding and combating injustice, but alone it's insufficient. A Christian ethos must guide its use and address its limitations.

A Christian worldview shapes the use of technology and ideologies. It provides ethical guidance for tackling injustice and avoids creating new forms of oppression.

Continuing education should go beyond skill updates. It should be a process of conversion, equipping individuals for justice work by reflecting on the signs of the times.

The Church and the world need men and women who prioritize serving others and live lives dedicated to justice and love.

A selfish way of life centered on self-interest and the pursuit of personal gain, often at the expense of others.

Treating people as objects or commodities, stripping them of their inherent dignity and worth.

When societal structures and institutions perpetuate egoism and injustice, making them seem normal and unavoidable.

To respond to evil with acts of love, generosity, and compassion, instead of retaliating with hatred or violence.

A conscious effort to live with less material possessions and prioritize needs over wants, challenging consumerism.

Making money from sources that exploit others or contribute to injustice.

A way of life where love for others becomes the driving force for promoting fairness and equality, challenging egoism.

A cycle driven by consumerism and social competition, where individuals feel pressured to acquire more and more material possessions, often at the expense of others.

A society where people are encouraged to constantly buy and consume goods and services, often driven by advertising and marketing.

Money left over after covering basic needs and expenses which can be shared with those in need.

The advantages and rewards gained from participating in a particular economic system, often distributed unequally.

The expenses and resources required to produce goods and services, often borne disproportionately by the poor.

The act of actively working to reduce advantages and opportunities held by the privileged in favor of the underprivileged.

Individuals who actively participate in transforming unjust societal structures and systems.

Social systems and institutions built on inequality and exploitation, perpetuating the cycle of poverty.

Those with advantages have a responsibility to assist the oppressed in changing unjust systems and structures.

The Church's core mission involves promoting justice and liberating the oppressed, making it an essential part of spreading the Gospel.

Debates within the Church arise about where to prioritize - ensuring justice among people or emphasizing justice before God.

The Church considers love for God and love for neighbor to be intrinsically linked and inseparable.

True love requires both charity (acts of kindness) and justice (fairness and equality) to be meaningful and complete.

Personal transformation leads to social change; changing ourselves internally should prompt us to fight for justice in the world.

Sin is not just personal action; it permeates our habits, environment, and even our thoughts, affecting us beyond our conscious choices.

Jesus identifies himself with the poor and downtrodden, making helping them a way of serving him.

Inclusion in God's Kingdom depends on how we treat the poor and oppressed, reflecting our true love and commitment.

Justice demands respect for all people, regardless of their circumstances, preventing us from exploiting or dehumanizing them.

Even passively benefiting from unjust systems is equivalent to contributing to oppression, making it crucial to fight for change.

We must actively oppose injustice, not just refuse to participate in it, working for a fair and just world for all.

Concupiscence is our natural inclination to sin, influenced by our personal history and the societal ills we inherit.

Conversion goes beyond outward actions; it involves a deep inner transformation, turning towards God and loving our neighbor.

The social realm, the 'world', is also affected by sin, creating structures of inequality and perpetuating injustices.
