A book-to-action series for education and action featuring: 
Faith in the Face of Empire: The Bible Through Palestinian Eyes by Mitri Raheb

Pages for Progress, a program of Church and Society, was established to create spaces for collective learning through shared reading and in-depth exploration of topics from a theological perspective, to become more effective advocates as people of faith.

This resource guide is the culmination of our gathering centered around “Faith in the Face of Empire: The Bible Through Palestinian Eyes.” Designed for use in local churches, districts, annual conferences, or community groups, the guide facilitates meaningful discussions and a deeper understanding of the book’s themes.

This guide is structured into three 90-minute sessions, each featuring:

  • Welcome and Community Guidelines: Establishing a respectful and inclusive environment.
  • Book Discussion Questions: Encouraging thoughtful dialogue and reflection.
  • Closing: Announcement and reminders for the next session.

The resource guide is available for free. Download the document below.
