The Myth of a Christian Nation

Gregory Boyd.  This book discusses how, while Jesus acknowledged political realities, He refused to invest His hopes and energies in politics as a solution to the worlds problems. In an examination of moments drawn from history and the present day, the author shows that whenever the church is co-opted by politics, we are seen as self-righteous judgers rather than Gods loving servants. This sends ripple waves of damage though out the world and turns away the very people we hope to guide toward salvation. You will learn how the quest for political power is destroying the church.  HB 207 pg.
