Just Mercy, the award-winning novel by Bryan Stevenson, has been chosen by the Discipleship/Adult Education Ministry for the 2022 Spring Valley Reads.

Bryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative, a legal practice dedicated to defending those most desperate and in need: the poor, the wrongly condemned, and women and children trapped in the farthest reaches of our criminal justice system. One of his first cases was that of Walter McMillian, a young man who was sentenced to die for a notorious murder he insisted he didn’t commit. The case drew Bryan into a tangle of conspiracy, political machination, and legal brinksmanship—and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever.

The Books are sold out. Please check with your local library, order from Amazon, or download on your reading device.
