For Christians seeking to understand modern slavery issues

Clarifies how the Bible relates to human trafficking today

You will gain insight to inspire action against injustice

This book examines the intersection of faith and human trafficking.

Whilst the philosophical battle against slavery might have been won, human trafficking is very much a problem for our time and continues to spark rigorous debate amongst Christians wrestling with what God's justice might look like today. Can the Bible, whose teaching on slavery is so at odds with our contemporary worldview, inform efforts to end human trafficking, and if so, how?

In "Human Trafficking, the Bible, and the Church" Marion Carson offers a profound, interdisciplinary account of how Christians have engaged with slavery in the past, and how they might respond in the future.

Whilst rigorously scholarly and painstakingly researched, this is at the same time a highly readable book that will refresh our own understanding and help shape our responsibility to bring about change.
