Christian Faith
Haugen is an engaged Christian. Since founding International Justice Mission in 1997, he has described witnessing a "sea change" within the "Christian community that was largely disengaged from the struggle for justice in the world," but now views care for victims of injustice as a significant issue in faith.

Famous quotes containing the words christian and/or faith:
“All great amusements are dangerous to the Christian life; but among all those which the world has invented there is none more to be feared than the theater. It is a representation of the passions so natural and so delicate that it excites them and gives birth to them in our hearts, and, above all, to that of love.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“Your faith an trouth yese never get
Nor our trew Love shall never twain
Till ye come within my bower
And kiss me both cheek and chin.
My mouth it is full cold, Margret,
It has the smell now of the ground;
An if I kiss thy comly mouth
Thy life days will not be long.”
—Unknown. Clerk Saunders (l. 109116)
