The Evangelical Alliance UK is sending President Barack Obama a new Bible after reports that one was mysteriously absent from his second swearing in. The new US President is being sent a copy of an edition of the Bible that highlights issues of poverty and justice: The Poverty and Justice Bible, published by Bible Society. This edition highlights more than 2,000 passages that speak of God’s attitude to poverty and justice. Prime Minister Gordon Brown was recently presented with The Poverty and Justice Bible at Downing Street, while in July 2008, hundreds of Bishops carried copies as they marched across Westminster in a campaign against world poverty.
