Righteous Hunger

From The After Party:

Hunger and Thirst for the right things.

Politics often awakens a hunger to win: To argue. To feel superior. To prove them wrong.
But Jesus invites us into something deeper: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”

That kind of hunger doesn’t ignore injustice. Rather, it fights for what is good and true. But it fights with humility, not hostility. It seeks restoration, not revenge. It builds up, rather than tears down.

This week, ask yourself:

  • Am I seeking righteousness, or just a sense of personal vindication?
  • What would it look like to fight for justice and mercy without becoming harsh or self-righteous?
  • How can I hunger for what is right without dehumanizing those I disagree with?
  • Where is God calling me to speak up for the vulnerable with courage and humility?

The kingdom way is not passive: it’s active, but rooted in love. It’s bold, but not proud.
That’s what The After Party is for.

It gives you language, posture, and practices to seek righteousness without losing your soul — or your relationships.
