Bible and Battlefield: 7 Lessons from the Civil War for Our Christian Faith Today is a type of Bible study that weaves history and biblical lessons together in a way that has not been done before. Bible and Battlefield will guide readers and study groups through several topics ranging from how to handle difficult people, what radical hospitality truly means, and having courage in life and leadership, all while connecting them to people, places, and events in the Civil War.The Bible itself is filled with true stories about real people and their experiences. The same can be said about the Civil War; it was about real people, real experiences, and real issues. It is easily forgotten that those true events happened on the other side of the sepia-tone photographs in the Library of Congress catalog. How quickly it is forgotten that the casualty numbers listed in countless textbooks represent real people! It is even simpler to forget that the Bible is not just a collection of unsubstantiated stories but is the real Word of God.History is not meant to be forgotten; it is not meant to be glossed over. Neither are the stories in the Bible, especially when those stories and lessons are difficult ones in this age of doing only what is comfortable. The Bible and history are ageless and applicable to every generation, yesterday and today. Bible and Battlefield seeks to bring both history and the Bible together in a way that deepens faith and applies that history in a manner that today's society often believes it is not - real and relevant.

Devotions for Warriors offers 365 daily readings, each containing a Civil War story, a life lesson, a pertinent Scripture quotation, and a prayer. Life is a battle. We all need wisdom and strength to engage life with zeal, joy, perseverance, hope, and success. We can learn from the mistakes and successes of those who went before us, but the best way to learn is from the principles of truth found only in the Holy Bible. A valid understanding of America's history is also an invaluable asset for those who wish to know the truth and to live as worthy citizens. The authors have presented a view of the War Between the States that has often been neglected in today's politically correct environment. This book is, in addition to being a treasure of daily devotions, also a Christian perspective concerning that terrible, fratricidal war.

Viewing the Civil War as a major turning point in American religious thought, Mark A. Noll examines writings about slavery and race from Americans both white and black, northern and southern, and includes commentary from Protestants and Catholics in Europe and Canada. Though the Christians on all sides agreed that the Bible was authoritative, their interpretations of slavery in Scripture led to a full-blown theological crisis.
