Bread for the Resistance: 40 Devotions for Justice People

Donna Barber

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.

"Some people write with beautiful words, and others speak through their character. Donna Barber excels at both. She writes with clarity and an unmatched depth of insight and has the reputation and longevity of someone who has something to teach us all. This devotional was exactly what I needed. Bread for the Resistance will refresh your soul and become the one book this year you give to everyone you know."

Ken Wytsma, author of The Myth of Equality, founder of The Justice Conference

"Donna has experience in sustainable life-giving transformational ministry. Her book has given us the gift of those practices that continue to fuel this work of shalom and justice. Her wisdom is seen in how she invites us to change the world through rebirth, good news, and love while paying attention to the reality of suffering. Donna envisioned and created the devotional that I wish I was given in my toughest days of pastoral and community work."

Sandra Maria Van Opstal, executive director, Chasing Justice

"Donna Barber has written one of the most timely devotionals of our generation. Bread for the Resistance will help you stay connected to the sustaining power of God's word so that your prophetic work is always rooted in the grace of God. I guarantee you've never read a devotional like this, and you will come to it over and over again."

Jonathan Brooks, pastor and author of Church Forsaken
