New Book from Biblical Worldview Media: God's Plan for Civil Government

My first book is off to the publisher! God's Plan for Civil Government will be released on October 24. This book is for anyone who has ever wondered what God says about limited government, separation of church and state, and voting.

From the Introduction:
“According to Scripture, what should a civil government look like? How should it be structured? What should the state be permitted to do? What should the state not be permitted to do? The average public official cannot answer these questions. Far worse than that, the average Christian cannot answer these questions. For far too long, we have been ignorant of the biblical principles of civil government. Now is the time for that to change.

I should make it clear that I do not place emphasis upon civil government as if that is the most important thing to teach. It is not. What God says about family and church are far more important than what He says about the state. So why even bring up the subject? It’s because God’s plan for civil government has often been ignored, twisted, or maligned, and so it is necessary to set out on this task of clearing up the confusion and pointing people back to Scripture. I hope the reader will gain insight and reap countless benefits from this brief study of both Scripture and civil government.”
