Episode 42: The Fight for Social Justice: How to Be Good Stewards of Our Words with Danielle Coke

Ep 42 sq.png

“He’s a God of justice and He has called us not only to love our neighbor as ourselves but to also seek justice; to fight for the oppressed.”

- Danielle Coke

Today’s guest Danielle Coke is the woman behind the social media page “Oh Happy Dani”. Her graphic designs and art have been shared all over social media because of their powerful and poignant messages of faith, social justice, and optimism.

In fact, I’m confident you saw someone in your feed share her meme that says, “Until you fix it here (pointing to a heart) and address it here (pointing to a home), nothing changes here (pointing to the world).” That post is what led me to feel so passionate about not only hearing the heart of ‘Oh Happy Dani’ but also talk about some of the powerful messages she has used to teach me through her art. You will not only learn from this interview, you will be inspired as well.

‘RENEW YOU’ Show Notes:

Host Quinn Kelly highlights Romans 12:2 thinking by helping readers reflect on this thought:

The WORLD says this: Love your neighbor is enough in seeking justice.
But God’s WORD says this: To seek justice as well as love our neighbors

“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.” - Isaiah 1:17

“He has shown you…what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” - Micah 6:8
