About this ebook
Based on extensive inside sources, including exclusive interviews with the President and Vice President, The Faith of Donald J. Trump explores his rarely discussed, but deeply important, religious beliefs and relationships with leading Evangelicals.
The Chief Political Correspondent for the Christian Broadcasting Network and the "Jesus in the Public Square" columnist for the Washington Times explore the rarely discussed, but deeply important, religious beliefs and worldview of Donald J. Trump and his advisors.
Donald J. Trump was raised as a Presbyterian and has praised both Christianity and the primacy of the Bible. In the Oval Office, he has surrounded himself with close advisors who share his deep faith. In this deeply reported book, David Brody and Scott Lamb draw on unparalleled access to the White House to explain President Trump’s connection to the Christian faith, the evangelical right, the prosperity gospel, and the pressing moral and ethical issues of our day.
In part, the authors argue, President Trump won over evangelicals not by pandering to them, but by supporting them and all their most important issues without pretending to be something he’s not. Though the forty-fifth president is far from the perfect vessel—he has been married three times—his supporters argue that Donald Trump may be just what America needs. This book reveals how he has surrounded himself with believers who think he is the one guiding figure who can return us to the traditional values—hard work, discipline, duty, respect, and faith—that have long been the foundation of American life, and truly make America great again in all ways.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Writing: 3.5; Theme: 4.5; Content: 5.0; Language: 4.5; Overall: 4.0; This was a different type of "biography" if we are to call it that. The authors did not transition from one point to another very well. It seemed to be a book of thirty anecdotal stories or essays on President Trump and his religious leanings. Having said all that, the book is filled with a lot of interesting data relating to the "faith" of President Trump. The book did not really give a definitive answer of President Trump's faith. I am not really sure whether President Trump has or doesn't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, but he certainly has shown a strong defense of the Christian faith and Christianity in general. This certainly wasn't your normal biography, but it is worth the read if you are interested in President Trump's relationship to Christianity and evangelicalism. Recommend. ***September 8, 2019***
