Breaking Our Chains: A Liberating Approach to Advent
£10.00
As Christmas approaches, a festival defined by optimism and solidarity, it’s time to follow the footsteps of King Wenceslas and create the kingdom of heaven on earth, founded on Christian and socialist principles of economic and social justice.
Breaking Our Chains clears the way ahead for that struggle through the interpretation of the Christmas story through the lens of liberation theology.

Breaking Our Chains is an Advent book, written from the perspective of liberation theology. Through prose, poetry, quotations and images, it sets out the complementary visions of Christianity and of socialism for incarnating Christ’s message of love by transforming our world into a more just and less class-divided society.
Geoff Bottoms has offered us an excellent combination of devotional reflection and engagement with scholarship, firmly within the great tradition of Christian radical and socialist thought. He has the rare skill of being able to present broad learning in an accessible manner.
