Inspired by the current political moment around the globe in which uprisings, protests, revolutions, and movements are on the rise, this book examines the intersections between the Bible and activism. It does this by showcasing intersectional readings of the Bible as an activist act and a tool for activism; historicizing the uses of the Bible within activist/freedom movements around the globe; and offering activist approaches to teaching the Bible.Each chapter in this volume provides a critical and substantive response from the discipline of Biblical Studies to global political trends. International in scope, with contributors from Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, Oceania and the United States, they address themes such as gender politics, racial injustices, violence toward women, political resistance, and activist hermeneutics and pedagogies. Together they harness the intellectual energies of minoritized Biblical scholars in a nonessentialist manner to reflect on the Bible as a tool for liberating social and political change. Reflecting on the activist potential of the Bible, this book will be of keen interest to scholars in Biblical Studies, Political Theology, and Religious Studies.

Faith in War the Soldiers Bible is a true story that takes place from 1967 through 2019. It is the first hand accounts of 7 U.S. Army combat veterans. These veterans fought in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. Combined these veterans have 11 combat tours between them. Some of the awards they amassed on these tours include 3 bronze stars with V device for valor, 2 purple hearts, two combat infantryman’s badges and a combat action badge. The common link all these veterans share is that they all carried the same war torn pocket bible and by God’s grace all made it home alive.
