Can faith remain neutral when injustice is political?

In The Myth of the Silent Pulpit, Chandalala C. challenges the modern insistence that religion must withdraw from public life. Through careful biblical analysis and historical examination, this book argues that from the beginning, Scripture presents faith as inseparable from power, governance, justice, and social order.

Beginning with the sovereignty language of Genesis and the liberation confrontation of Exodus, Chandalala traces a consistent pattern: whenever power becomes oppressive, prophetic voices emerge. From Israel's monarchy and the warnings of Samuel, to the economic indictments of Amos, the foreign-policy critique of Isaiah, the temple sermon of Jeremiah, and the armed resistance of the Maccabees, the Bible repeatedly shows that faith is not apolitical-it is accountable to a higher sovereignty.

The book then moves forward to John the Baptist under Roman rule and connects this tradition to modern witnesses such as Martin Luther King Jr., Desmond Tutu, and �scar Romero-figures who paid a price for confronting political injustice.

This is not a call for partisan pulpits or clerical ambition. It is a case for prophetic responsibility.

Clear, historically grounded, and unflinching, The Myth of the Silent Pulpit confronts one urgent question:

If suffering is political - can faith afford to be silent?

Perfect for readers interested in theology, social justice, church leadership, and the intersection of religion and public life.
