About Us

FIRE builds upon a theological and creative framework developed over many years by the Center for Faith and Justice, bringing that longstanding work into new public expression.

At the heart of FIRE is a fresh engagement with the four Gospel endings as living metaphors for the life of faith. John’s call to Follow, Matthew’s invitation to Invite, Luke’s reminder to Remain, and Mark’s courage to Embrace, together shape a vision of four-dimensional storytelling. This framework nurtures a creative ecosystem that reflects the vibrancy, diversity, complexity, and theological depth of Christian life in its many expressions.

Through this approach, FIRE seeks to challenge one-dimensional narratives of spirituality by amplifying stories that bear witness to the fullness of the Good News—stories that are grounded, expansive, and textured enough to engage faith as it is truly lived.
