Synopsis

Sometimes you get tired, doing this thing we call justice. Making the case, fighting the fight, having to explain again and again why it matters. You feel burned out or disillusioned. Sometimes you just need a word from the Lord.

In these daily devotions, Donna Barber offers life-giving words of renewal and hope for those engaged in the resistance to injustice. When you face adversity, you can take courage. When you grapple with discouragement, you can find hope. When your legs are tired from marching and your knees are bruised from kneeling, you can experience rest and healing.

Find here bread for the resistance.

The author uses scripture to encourage readers to seek the heart of God for wisdom and strength in this process. Each daily chapter is deep and thoughtful, w......more

Goodreads review by Jason on March 31, 2022

It's a decent devotional if you're into that sort of thing. Fair warning: It's for left wing people. Left wing Americans specifically. And it seems also to be written for African Americans. And females. So yeah, if you're a left wing, American, African American, female Christian, this is targeted at......more
