"We've Got to Get America Back to God." This song title leads one to believe that America once did belong to the Almighty. But how did we get so far from our religious heritage to the ungodly state in which we now live?

Betrayed by the Bench, by John A. Stormer, is an excellent source for finding the answer. Mr. Stormer has been involved in both the legislative and judicial levels of government for nearly four decades. He has witnessed the slow but sure turning of American government from common law to case law; man's law rather than God's law. The term is sociological jurisprudence. (Yes, you will learn some new terms!) As I read this book (less than 175 pages, including the appendix), I was appalled at the blatent disrespect that many of our government officials (namely judges) have for our Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. But just being shocked and getting angry doesn't change anything. The last chapter is titled, "What Can Be Done to Restore Godly, Constitutional Justice?" One of the ways is for American churches to be changed. That begins with you and me. A spiritual awakening is not enough. We need real revival. As Mr. Stormer states, "True revival changes people, a culture, a nation, and its politics" (pg 157).

I so thoroughly enjoyed this book! It is one of those that while reading, I would stop and go find my husband and say, "Listen to this!" It is not difficult to understand and is filled with quotations of our forefathers and from those who have been instrumental in the crumbling of our government's foundation and thus our entire culture.

This and other books by Mr. Stormer can be purchased here.
