Salt and Light: The Secret to Restoring America's Culture

Description

In this Farwell Address to the Nation, George Washington stated that religion and morality are two indispensable supports to good government and a peaceful society. Washington referred to them as "great pillars of human happiness." He stated that no one could be called a patriot "who should labor to subvert them." But look around. In all our institutions―educational, governments at all levels, our courts, and the media―such things are criticized. Christians are marginalized. We are called weak, stupid, uneducated, bigoted, intolerant, etc. Christians are told to keep their mouths shut and their opinions to themselves. God has been scrubbed from our schools, our playgrounds, the workplace, the halls of justice, and government councils. As a result, our cities are burning and our kids are dying from drug abuse, suicide, and from violence at the hands of other kids. What will it take to recognize that then you remove God from society, you get a godless society. I wrote the book Salt and Light because I am deeply concerned about the kind of America my grandchildren will grow up in. Will they enjoy the blessings of liberty and the opportunity for prosperity that accompany a society built on God's social order? Or will they live under the oppression and tyranny of a statist government that inevitably and invariably grows from social chaos? We still have a choice. Salt and Light is a practical guide to ensuring the former, thus avoiding the latter.
