Voters today often default to one side of the political spectrum or the other. Candidates avoid discussing issues, and election outcomes are influenced by slogans and ads. In Faith in the Voting Booth, Leith Anderson and Galen Carey show how better informed, faith-directed voting is both possible and desperately needed in our country today.

Riassunto
Faith in the Voting Booth by National Association of Evangelicals leaders Leith Anderson and Galen Carey will help you clarify your own positions in light of your faith before you enter the voting booth. Anderson and Carey show that biblical wisdom is surprisingly relevant to today’s complex political issues. Each voting decision should be thoughtfully and prayerfully approached.
This book does not tell you how to vote. Instead it will help you resist clever campaign slogans and television ads designed to make you angry or afraid. Faith in the Voting Booth provides general principles to guide you in 2016 and for years to come.
As informed faith leaders, Anderson and Carey not only identify the issues but also help you reflect biblically on how to vote. It is a book that will keep people of faith up to date and ready to vote with confidence and wisdom.
Testo aggiuntivo
“The most comprehensive, thoughtful, and researched book ever written on living out our faith as we vote. This is NOT just some simplistic ‘Voter’s Guide.’ This falls in the category of Discipleship as a witness for Christ. The reading is compelling and rich in both biblical and historical narratives that impact our thinking both domestically and globally now and in the future. The course of history could be changed.… Take the challenge!”
