    About this ebook

    Acknowledging God in the Decisions of State: A Treatise on Biblical Statesmanship, 2nd Edition surveys the obstacles to good governance now confronting the United States. Following a brief description of the political terrain, the author then proceeds to identify specific providential opportunities to improve our nation's status. Each strategy rests upon one operative premise. Simply stated: To reduce the frequency with which policy decisions miss the mark, right relationship with God must be established, a relationship that produces the moral clarity required of those ordained by God to serve in positions of governance. Read this book for a detailed account of what we can and must do now to secure good governance in the United States.

    Subject: Good Governance through Biblically-Informed Statesmanship
