​

What if the Christian hope for America has nothing to do with laws, politics, or freedom?

What if the calling of Christians in America has nothing to do with fixing our culture?

Constitutional expert, Janet Ruth, points Christians back to the gospel by dismantling misconceptions about the relationship between church and state, religion and politics. In Separate for a Reason: Re-Examining Separation of Church and State in America, you will:
Learn the history of the writing of the 1st Amendment Religion ClausesGet a detailed overview of 1st Amendment law and important Supreme Court casesGet an in-depth look at the controversy over the words "under God" in the Pledge of AllegianceSee how Christians can be motivated by faulty arguments to protect their homes, comforts, and freedomsDiscover how the gospel message can free you from fear for your nation and the burden of fixing a broken culture
Separate for a Reason provides an alternative to the culture war in a historical, legal, and biblical review of Separation of Church and State. It provides a fresh perspective on an old debate and helps Christians put their faith in God instead of moral laws and empty religious ceremonies.
