Why Politics Need Christians

I don’t typically enjoy politics. This book was one of my textbooks in college. I’m so glad it was! The author does a great job of bringing great perspective into why it is so important that Christians be involved in politics and how we affect the world around us. It really brings into reality the why in “why did God put us on this earth?” It is so encouraging in a time when Christians seem to be shamed. A must read for Christians as a whole, especially for those who seek to understand more about politics. I HIGHLY recommend this to those who are averted by politics, like me, because there is so much for us to learn in it.

This Should be in Every Church Library

When I was my church's librarian, I purchased this book because of the author's reputation for excellence and orthodoxy as well as for its comprehensive treatment of a broad subject. I had the opportunity to read it when a daughter was in the hospital for a long surgery and a week of recovery. The words flow smoothly and the logic flows brilliantly. Don't let the massive size of the book deter you from reading it. Just read a topic at a time as needed.
