"Faith apart from works is dead" - James 2:26 Most Christians know faith brings glory to God when it activates us to do good works, both within the body of Christ and to those that are lost and needy in the world. What most Christians don't realize is that the unbelieving world also understands this. Prevent the good works, and the faith is no longer credible. To do this, those in darkness are willing to use every tool at their disposal to remove any Christian influence that would bring credit upon the Lord and ultimately the gospel of Jesus ChristThe ungodliness polluting our society's fabric hasn't stopped with capturing college campuses, the entertainment industry or the mainstream news media. Its proponents now exercise incredible political power through unceasing, creative and deceitful tactics the Christian community is unable or unwilling to challenge in a united way. Why remove Christian influence from politics? Because our adversaries know if government can co-opt the Christian's Matthew 22:39 and 5:13-16 mandates, then eventually Matthew 28:19-20 will be relegated to the dark corners of a locked closet. In effect: remove the tangible "works" we're called to do and the "faith" is dead. Our generation is witnessing the takeover of government by worldviews that despise our values and our source of hope. Although there are reasons why the nation's largest demographic group has so little influence, there's hope if we stop removing politics from the list of "good works" we're called to do. To help do just that, this book identifies three interrelated problem areas: pastoral leadership, Christian divisiveness, and ineffective political engagement. It then gives practical advice on how to do kingdom work in political minefields for our personal good, the common good and ultimately for the sake of the gospel."

Christopher Hitchens, described in the London Observer as “one of the most prolific, as well as brilliant, journalists of our time” takes on his biggest subject yet–the increasingly dangerous role of religion in the world. In the tradition of Bertrand Russell’s Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris’s recent bestseller, The End Of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close and erudite reading of the major religious texts, he documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clarity, Hitchens frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which hell is replaced by the Hubble Telescope’s awesome view of the universe, and Moses and the burning bush give way to the beauty and symmetry of the double helix.

No one would disagree with the assessment that Christians, over the centuries, have been guilty of anti-Semitism, sometimes with barbarous results. The real question is not whether individual Christians have been anti-Semites, but whether anti-Semitism is somehow ingrained in the very roots of Christianity, in its very essence. Rosemary Ruether has declared that anti-Semitism is the other side of Christology, the inevitable fallout of placing Jesus at the right hand of the Father.The contributors to this volume consider that larger question from several vantage points. Their findings are vitally important for Christians and Jews alike. Not only do they explore the beginnings of Christian anti-Semitism, they help us understand the dynamics of the religious impulse for all peoples and all times.The contributors to this volume include John C. Meagher, Douglas R.A. Hare, Lloyd Gaston, John T. Townsend, David Efroymson, Monika K. Hellwig, Gregory Baum, John T. Pawlikowski, Douglass J. Hall, Alan T. Davies, Terence R. Anderson, and Rosemary R. Ruether.
