The Publisher Review Series: An Introduction

At Guiding Light Press, we believe that the act of reading is a revolutionary tool for transformation. Our Publisher Review Series is more than a collection of book critiques; it is a dedicated intellectual mission to engage with the literature of liberation.

We curate and review works that challenge the status quo, dismantle systemic oppression, and explore decolonial missions. By examining the intersections of faith, politics, and social justice, we aim to provide our readers with the clarity needed to navigate a complex world.

Our selection criteria focus on "unsettling truths"—voices and scholars who dare to reimagine global systems from the perspective of the marginalized. Through this series, we invite you to join us in reclaiming narratives and seeking the "guiding lights" that lead toward a more liberated and equitable future.

Critical engagement with the literature of liberation, dismantling systemic narratives and exploring decolonial missions.
