A unique and original perspective on slavery
Review:
If you like thought-provoking literature, “To Own a Slave or
Not to Own a Slave”
The authors challenge readers to re-analyze the way they
have been taught about the meaning of the biblical master and slave
relationship, and propose that a misunderstanding of this biblical concept has
caused a “wrong” relationship between the master and slave. Further, the Bowers’ suggest that this wrong
relationship has poured over into modern times through different forms of
slavery such as human trafficking and child labor. The authors present a call to action to faith
based organizations to come together to fight the evil of modern day slavery
through implementing three strategies they provide in the book.
Whether you're a spiritual person or not, this book will have
you asking a lot of questions about what you have been taught about slavery and
its impact on neighborhoods today. If you are looking to understand slavery
from a different perspective and strategies to help improve your neighborhood,
I highly recommend you read this book.
